Jo is a short form of Josephine, a feminine French form of the name Joseph. Joseph, from Ioseph, is the Latin form of Greek Ἰωσήφ (Ioseph), which was from the Hebrew name יוֹסֵף (Yosef) meaning "he will add". It's also a chiefly Scottish term of endearment, like 'sweetheart' or 'dear'.

Jo, for me, is a carefree sort of name. It makes me think of lush gardens, beautiful birds, and the bright blue skies of summer.
