Giuseppe Origin and Meaning

The name Giuseppe is a boy's name of Italian origin.

This form of Joseph is an enduring classic in Italy. In the States it's been hovering under the radar for decades, unlike popular boy Giovanni. It could honor a grandpa Joe, and we think the traditional diminutive Beppe is pretty cute.
