Joshis is in Origin.

Joshis is an uncommon given name shaped by cross-cultural influences. In South Asian contexts, it most naturally relates to the Indian surname Joshi, which descends from Sanskrit jyotisha, "astrology/astronomy," and denoted a learned priest-astrologer. As a first name, Joshis carries that scholarly, celestial association of reading the stars and auspicious timing.

As a modern forename, Joshis is very rare, appearing in contemporary usage where surnames become first names or where an -s/-is ending is added for style (compare Harris or Ellis). Some listeners also perceive it as a stylized extension of Josh, the English short form of Joshua (from Hebrew Yehoshua, "Yahweh is salvation"), giving the name a secondary biblical layer. Related forms and near-variants include Joshi, Josh, Joshy, Jyotish, and Jyotisha; unisex use is plausible. Because the name is new in given-name roles and not charting in major rankings, spelling and pronunciation may vary regionally.
