Josette

Josette is a French feminine diminutive of Joséphine or Joseph, both ultimately derived from the Hebrew name Yosef, meaning "he will add" or "God will increase," referring to a prayer for additional children. The name emerged in France as an affectionate, informal form and became established as an independent given name in its own right. It shares its Hebrew root with José, Giuseppe, and Josef, and is closely related to Josée and Joséphine.
