Nice or nice, said of a person, means pleasant or agreeable; decent or respectable--
The new neighbors seem like nice people.
Be nice when you go to the party--no tantrums.
Nice may also mean showing or requiring tact, delicacy, or accuracy--
Perfect timing; that was a nice save.
That's a nice distinction, but it may not matter in the end.
Niece or niece means the daughter of your brother or sister--
Our niece is the same age as our daughter.
My sister is expecting; I'll have a niece or a nephew soon.
Now that you know that, you can say--
"Our niece is nice; we're sure you'll like her."
Note--"Nice" ( rhymes with niece, a proper name, always capitalized ) is a city in France--
We are thinking of spending our vacation in Nice.
