In Greek mythology, Helice ({{IPAc-en|ˈ|h|ɛ|l|ᵻ|k|iː}} pronounced {{IPA-el|heˈlikɛː|}}, modern {{IPA-el|eˈlici}}; Ancient Greek: {{lang|grc|Ἑλίκη}} Helike means "willow"^[1]) was a name of several women:

Helice, nurse of the god Zeus and nurtured him in his infancy on Crete.^[2] Her name suggests that she was a "willow-nymph", just as there were oak-tree nymphs and ash-nymphs (Dryads and Meliae). It is likely that she is the same as Ide.
Queen Helike, wife of King Oenopion of Chios and mother by him of Melas, Talus, Maron, Euanthes, Salagus, Athamas^[3] and Merope.
Helike, wife of Ion and mother of Bura. Ion built the city and named it after his wife. They were wed by her father Selinus.
Helike, in antiquity, a common proper name for the constellation Ursa Major.^[4]
