Jozzey is English in Origin.

Jozzey is a modern English invention, a stylized respelling most closely aligned with Josey/Josie, the familiar short form of Joseph or Josephine. Through that route its meaning traces to Hebrew Yosef, "he will add, increase." The double z and final -ey lend a playful, contemporary sound and sometimes blur with Jossy/Jossey, pet forms of Jocelyn (from Germanic Gaut-), though Joseph/Josephine remains the likeliest base.

Usage is recent and rare, surfacing in late 20th- to early 21st-century Anglophone naming, often as a unisex nickname or creative given name. Variant spellings and close relatives include Josey, Josie, Jossy, Jossey, Jozey, Jozy, Jozzie, and Jozie; formal anchors are Joseph and Josephine. The z-form may also echo Slavic forms like Jozef/Jozefina. Overall, Jozzey carries an upbeat, affectionate feel with the classic "increase" meaning behind it.
