Jozie is in Origin.
Jozie (pronounced JOH-zee) is a contemporary spelling of Josie, the familiar English diminutive of Josephine, itself the feminine form of Joseph. Joseph derives from the Hebrew name Yosef, meaning “he will add” or “God will increase.” The z in Jozie lends a modern, zesty twist and loosely echoes Slavic diminutive patterns (compare Polish Józia), though Jozie functions chiefly as an English respelling rather than a traditional Slavic form.
Josie became popular in the 19th century across the English-speaking world and has seen periodic revivals; Jozie appears in late 20th–21st century records as a rarer, creative alternative used either independently or as a nickname. Related variants include Josie, Josey, Josy, Josi, Jozi, and Jozy, with longer bases Josephine, Josepha, and Josette; the masculine counterpart is Joseph. Jozie retains the core meaning “increase; God will add,” suggesting growth, abundance, and blessing.
