Joselin

Joselin Origin and Meaning

The name Joselin is a girl's name.

Joselin is a feminine name with medieval origins, derived from the Germanic name Gauselin, a diminutive of Gauz or Goz, meaning 'Goth.' It came to England with the Norman Conquest and evolved into various forms including Jocelyn and Joslin. While historically used for both genders, Joselin is now primarily feminine. It offers a softer alternative to the more common Jocelyn, with the same potential for the nickname Joss or Josie. The name has a delicate, vintage charm that appeals to parents seeking something traditional yet not overused. Though never extremely popular, Joselin sees occasional use in English-speaking countries and has a timeless quality that transcends trends.
