A member of the Gauts tribe
Josceline is a feminine form of the Germanic name Jocelyn, which originally referred to the Gauts, a North Germanic tribe. While it was used as a masculine name in the Middle Ages, it was later adopted as a feminine choice. The spelling variant Josceline adds a touch of French-inspired elegance to the more common Jocelyn.
