An odd girls name that pops up in my head now and then. I had to look up if it was real or something I made up somehow - turns out there was a Swedish 19th century artist called Josabeth Sjöberg, born in 1812. Her full name was Josabeth Fredrica Carolina. That must have been where I got it, and I suppose her parents might have gotten it from mixing Johanna (her mother's name) and Elisabeth? Anyhow, I think it's rather cute. What do you think? :)

ETA: My sister thinks it might be the same thing as Josabeat, the form of Jehoshabeath (user submitted) used in the Swedish Bible. Certainly possible.
