Josheph

Josheph is a rare variant spelling of the classic Hebrew name Joseph, which means "God will add" or "God will increase." This unique spelling combines elements of Joseph and Joshua, possibly giving the name a more distinctive appearance while maintaining its traditional roots. Josheph is not commonly used, making it a relatively uncommon choice for parents seeking a variation of the more traditional Joseph. While it carries the same biblical heritage and positive connotations as Joseph, the altered spelling might require the bearer to occasionally correct pronunciation or spelling throughout life. Nevertheless, it maintains the strong, reliable character associated with its more common counterpart.

Pronounced JOH-sef.

As of October 2026, Josheph ranked #5854 in US births in 1981 SSA, peaked at #4641 in 1922.
