| FOR REAL: Joyce was originally a man's name, an alternate form of the Medieval English name Josse, which is ultimately from a Breton name meaning "lord." Since the 20th century, however, it has been almost exclusively used for girls, probably because of its similarity in sound to "rejoice," "joyous" etc. | |||||
