José is a predominantly Spanish and Portuguese form of the given name Joseph. While spelled alike, this name is pronounced differently in each language: Spanish ; Portuguese (or ).
In French, the name ''José'', pronounced , is an old vernacular form of Joseph, which is also in current usage as a given name. José is also commonly used as part of masculine name composites, such as José Manuel, José Maria or Antonio José, and also in female name composites like Maria José or Marie-José. The feminine written form is ''Josée'' as in French.
In Netherlandic Dutch, however, ''José'' is a feminine given name and is pronounced ; it may occur as part of name composites like Marie-José or as a feminine first name in its own right; it can also be short for the name ''Josina'' and even a Dutch hypocorism of the name ''Johanna''.
In England, Jose is originally a Romano-Celtic surname, and people with this family name can usually be found in, or traced to, the English county of Cornwall, where it was especially frequent during the fourteenth century; this surname is pronounced , as in the English names ''Joseph'' or ''Josephine''. According to another interpretation ''Jose'' is cognate with ''Joyce''; ''Joyce'' is an English and Irish surname derived from the Breton personal name ''Iodoc,'' which was introduced to England by the Normans in the form ''Josse''. In medieval England the name was occasionally borne by women but more commonly by men; the variant surname ''Jose'' is local to Devon and Cornwall.
The common spelling of this given name in different languages is a case of interlingual homography. Similar cases occur in English given names (Albert, Bertrand, Christine, Daniel, Eric, and Ferdinand) that are not exclusive to the English language and can be found namely in French with a different pronunciation under exactly the same spelling.
Spanish pronunciation
The Spanish pronunciation is . In Castilian Spanish, the initial is similar to the German in the name Bach and Scottish Gaelic and Irish in '' loch'', though Spanish varies by dialect.
Historically, the modern pronunciation of the name ''José'' in Spanish is the result of the phonological history of Spanish coronal fricatives since the fifteenth century, when it departed from Old Spanish. Unlike today's pronunciation of this name, in Old Spanish the initial was a voiced postalveolar fricative (as the sound "''je''" in French), and the middle stood for a voiced apicoalveolar fricative /z̺/ (as in the Castilian pronunciation of the word ''mismo''). The sounds, from a total of seven sibilants once shared by medieval

French vernacular form
The French given name ''José'', pronounced , is an old vernacular form of the French name ''Joseph'', and is also popular under the feminine form ''Josée''. The masculine form is current as a given name, or as short for Joseph as is the case of French politician José Bové. The same masculine form is also commonly used as part of feminine name composites, as is the case of French athlete Marie-José Pérec. In turn, the feminine form ''Josée'' is only used customarily either as a feminine first name or as part of a feminine name composite, with respective examples in French film director Josée Dayan and Canadian actress Marie-Josée Croze.
Jewish use
A number of prominent Jewish men, including sportsmen, entertainers and historical figures, are known publicly as ''Joseph'' or Jose, another form of ''Yossi'' (Hebrew: יֹוסִי), and a diminutive of ''Yosef'' or ''Yossef'' (Hebrew: יוֹסֵף).
Feminine form
Both the Spanish and Portuguese feminine written forms of the name are Josefa, pronounced in Spanish, and in Portuguese. The name ''José'' also occurs in feminine name composites (e.g. ''Maria José'', ''Marie-José'').
''Josée'' is a French feminine first name, pronounced , relates to the longer feminine form of ''Joséphine'' , and may also be coupled with other names in feminine name composites.
Similarly, in Flemish, ''José'' is a male given name, for which the feminine written form is ''Josée'', with both forms being pronounced , but the spelling stems originally from neighboring French-speaking influence.
In Dutch, however, ''José'' is pronounced , which is a feminine given name in its own right, sometimes also used as short for the feminine name ''Josina''. Examples are Olympic swimmer José Damen and pop singer José Hoebee.
''Josephine'' and ''Joséphine'' are in use in English-speaking countries, while ''Josefine'' is popular in Western Europe.
Diminutives
One of the common Spanish diminutives of the name is ''Pepe'', which is a repetition of the last syllable of the earlier form ''Josep''. (Popular belief attributes the origin of Pepe to the abbreviation of ''pater putativus'', P.P., recalling the role of

in predominantly Catholic Spanish-speaking countries.) In Hispanic America, the diminutives ''Cheché'' and ''Chepe'' also occur, as in Colombian soccer player José Eugenio ("Cheché") Hernández and Mexican soccer player José ("Chepe") Naranjo.
In Portuguese, the most widely used diminutive form of the name is ''Zé'', and less used forms include ''Zeca'', ''Zezé'', ''Zezinho'', ''Zuca'', and ''Juca''. The augmentative of the diminutive may occur as in ''Zezão'', as well as the diminutive of the diminutive ''Zequinha'', Zezinho, Josesito.
