📖 The story of the name Josua

The name Josua, often also spelled as Josua or Joshua in German, has its roots in Hebrew and translates to something like "The Lord saves" or "God is salvation." It is the German form of the biblical name Jeshua, which in turn is a variant of Joshua, the successor of Moses and leader of the Israelites into the Promised Land. Over the centuries, the name has evolved from a purely biblical reference to a modern, international first name that exudes both traditional depth and contemporary lightness.
