God will add
A French feminine diminutive of Joseph, which is derived from the Hebrew name Yosef. It carries the traditional meaning of 'He will add' or 'God increases,' reflecting a sense of abundance and blessing. While popular in mid-20th century France, it remains a rare and sophisticated choice in the United States.
