Joss
Origin and Meaning
The name Joss is a boy's name of english origin meaning “one of the Goths”.
Joss is a charming short form of the name Jocelyn, which ultimately hails from the Germanic tribal name Gautzelin. This name has a relaxed, artistic vibe, likely due to its association with filmmaker Joss Whedon and singer Joss Stone—though she is female, Joss works comfortably for both genders. It's rare enough to feel unique but not so outlandish that it raises eyebrows.
