Coming from the Hebrew Joseph, it translates to “God shall add” or “God will increase,” reminding baby that there will always be more in their future. We know that your little one deserves nothing but the best in life. With each extra slice of cake or extra 10 minutes on the playground, baby will wear the name Josephyna with pride.
