joselyn is French, Germanic in Origin.
Joselyn is a modern spelling of Jocelyn, brought into English via Old French Joscelin after the Norman Conquest. Scholars propose two roots: a Germanic element gaut denoting the Goths/Geats, or the Breton saint’s name Judoc (Latin Iudocus) meaning “lord,” with the French diminutive -lin/-elyn; thus readings range from “of the Gauts/Geats” to “little lord.”
In medieval England Jocelyn was chiefly masculine and later a surname; from the 19th–20th centuries it shifted strongly female, especially in North America, where Joselyn rose and peaked in the 2000s. International variants include Jocelyn, Joslyn, Joslin, Joselynn, Josslyn, French Jocelyne and Josselin (often masculine), and Spanish-influenced Joselin/Yoselin; common nicknames are Josie, Joss, and Lyn.
