Meaning & Origin

Guiseppe is a boy's baby name, an alternate spelling of Giuseppe, the Italian form of Joseph, which is of Hebrew origin, from Yosef, meaning 'God will add' or 'God increases.'

Guiseppe reflects how Giuseppe was sometimes recorded phonetically in American records, where the Gu- spelling made the name's pronunciation clearer for English speakers. Giuseppe is one of the most iconic Italian masculine names — borne by composers, artists, and politicians including Verdi and Garibaldi — carrying all the richness of Italian cultural history.
