I'd assume it's short for a long name ending in -ency, sort of like Enzo for Lorenzo. I don't like Ency as a full name. I think it reminds me of too many words like emcee, etsy, antsy...
It could also be a "y" nickname for a name ending in -ence. Some full names... Clemency
Clemence
Florence
Prudence
Patience Montmorency
Clarence
Laurence
Terrence
And middle names...Ency Dorinda
Ency Petunia
Ency Margaret
Ency Jane
Ency Beatrice
Ency Floralinda
Ency Georgia
Ency Bettina
Ency Jacqueline
Ency Lilibet
Ency Michaela
Ency Abigail Ency Charles
Ency Donahue
Ency Willoughby
Ency George
Ency Baldwin
Ency Theodore
Ency Philip
Ency Augustus
Ency Louis
Ency Sebastian
Ency Michael
Ency Horatio

It looks like a fragment at first.
I get a vibe like I do with names like Etta and Joe. Kinda spare and distant or tough, yet familiar. Old fashioned and sexless.
It could pass as an initials name (N.C.)
I don't love the sound, though, personally - it reminds me of antsy.
The best middle name might be Clopedia.
But if we're very serious ... I'd avoid middle names that start with a consonant since they will run together, and -ia names.
Ency Isabel?

Sorry, but my brain doesn't register Ency as a person's name. It makes me think "emergency" and "clemency." Do you have any other information about it? Did you see this spelling in the credits or are you going off the sound? If so, then maybe there's a different spelling that could be a name with history / meaning to it. :0)
