Jozlyn

Perhaps baby will be a lover of goth fashion and music when they grow up, with the name Jozlyn. A variation of Jocelyn, this gender-neutral moniker derives from the term for a member of the Germanic tribe, the Gauts, also known as the Goths. The group is known for its part in the fall of the Roman Empire and becoming the powerful successors in Italy and the Iberian Peninsula. Now, when people hear the word “goth,” most think of those dressed in all-black clothing. But there are all kinds of gothic references, such as the 1100s architectural style, paintings, music, and literature. If you are a lover of dark lyrics and harrowing tales, maybe Jozlyn is the perfect choice for you.
