View Name: Jocelyn

From the Germanic masculine name Gautselin, which was derived from the name of a Germanic tribe, the Gauts. The Normans brought this name to England in the form Goscelin or Joscelin, and it was common until the 14th century. It was revived in the 20th century primarily as a feminine name, perhaps an adaptation of the surname Jocelyn (a medieval derivative of the given name). In France this is a masculine name only.
