Jospeh is a first name for boys.
Recently, the name Jospeh has been given only a handful of times a year and is therefore particularly rare, at least in the US. In recent years, not even one boy in 100,000 has been named Jospeh. That means that a boy named Jospeh is exceptional and may not meet another person with the same name his whole life. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Jospeh.
If your name is Jospeh your parents may be very proud to let their son swim against the tide: The name Jospeh has never ranked higher than position 1,019 in our statistics and for many years not a single parent had the creative idea to choose the name Jospeh for their son. But something caused mothers and fathers in 1988 to give the name more often than usual – only compared to the rest of the time, of course. You probably still won't find many children named Jospeh because that was a few decades ago – unless, of course, you have some very creative parents in your neighborhood.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Jospeh was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
As in the last century, Jospeh is still an exception. Even in 2022, the name was given very rarely - in fact, only 6 times in the entire USA. So a Jospeh of 2022 will need very good binoculars to spot the next namesake of the same age.
The odds of having a man or boy named Jospeh in your home state are about the same as the chance for a white Christmas in New York City – in both cases they are less than 30%. More precisely, the first name Jospeh is registered in 12 states, among which are California, Georgia, Illinois, Massachusetts or Mississippi. In proportion to the male population, most men and boys with the first name Jospeh live in Mississippi, but even there the name is rather special – on average, you would have to ask 133,326 men and boys in Mississippi for their name before you meet one who answers with Jospeh.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter J is the most popular first letter for boys’ names. 10.1% of all common boys’ names in the US start with this letter. The second most common first letter in boys’ names is A.
With six letters, the name Jospeh is of average length. In fact, 28% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly six letters. 24% of all first names are shorter, while 48% have seven letters or more. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long. There are no significant differences between boys' and girls' names.
That means that if 10.1% of all boys’ names start with a J, this initial letter occurs nearly three times as often as all other letters on average. And, by the way, of all the boys’ names that begin with the letter J, the name James is the most common.
If your name is Jospeh and someone asks after your name, you can of course just tell them what it is. But sometimes that isn't so easy - what if it's too loud, and you don't understand them well? Or what if the other person is so far away that you can see them but not hear them? In these situations, you can communicate your name in so many other ways: you call spell it, sign it, or even use a flag to wave it...
