Joshua- feminine form
we are planning to name our second child, who is a girl, after her uncle Joshua. the only problem is that we are unsure what the feminine form of "Joshua" is. if you know please contact us at schavonifam@yahoo.com thank-you.

The name "Joshua" is an anglicized version of the hebrew name "Yehoshua", meaning, "Yehowah saves". It signifies that Yehowah, the Eternal God, is the only savior of humanity (collectively and individually.) Since, the name is a description, a definer, of who God is, there can not be a feminine variant of it.
Its jophiel as in archangel jophiel who is or was one who assisted in ascension descension of the physical body in 2018
I dont know the feminine form--but what about Josanah, or Josie? Or, a slightly further derivation: Sasha.. I know it is short for Alexander/Alexandra.. but it is similar. Good luck!
Well, according to google, there's at least two girls somewhere with the name Joshualyn. Maybe you use that name? Or Joshanna (a couple of girls has this name)?
Hope I helped,

May I suggest giving her Joshua as a middle name? Or finding an aunt to name her after?
I wouldn't expect a female form of Joshua, or any other Old Testament names actually, not in use when the male names were at least - nor do I recall any women associated with the biblical character.
