Origin: Hebrew

Meaning: God increases

Josepha is a feminine name of Hebrew origin. One of the rarer alternatives to Joseph, it means “God increases.” What makes this even more special, in addition to its association with important biblical characters, is the list of female firsts. Josepha Abiertas, for one, was the first woman to graduate with a degree from the Phillippine Law School. Josepha Doughlas was one of the first female doctors from Denver, Colorado. By choosing this moniker for your little one, you get to inspire them to make their mark in the world, trusting the heavens to take care of the rest.
