History & Origin
Yoseline is a Spanish-influenced form of Jocelyn, which descends from the Germanic Gauzelin, tied to the Gaut people. It rose among Hispanic-American families in the late twentieth century and reached its peak near 2007 at close to a hundred girls a year, part of a broader vogue for Y-spelled names.
A girl named Yoseline at that peak is in her teens today, marking it as a Gen-Z name. It reads as a contemporary bicultural spelling rather than a historic form; Jocelyn and Yoselin are its nearest kin, and its meaning is inherited from that medieval parent.
