Meaning of the baby name HOVSEP.

  

HOVSEP.  Armenian form of biblical Joseph (q.v.), meaning "addition" or "Jehovah will add."

... It may also be noted that the Armenian has changed the consonantal values of most of the ordinary sounds in Christian names; thus George becomes Kevork; Sergius, Sarkis; Jacob, Hagop; Joseph, Hovsep; Gregory, Krikori; Peter, Bedros; and so on...
... In 1908 Rev. Hovsep (Joseph) Keossajian settled in Lawrence, Massachusetts, and established a chapel in St. Mary's Church.  He ministered to the spiritual wants of the Armenian Catholics at Boston, Cambridge, East Watertown, Newton, Lynn, Chelsea, and Lowell... (Catholic Encylcopedia, Herbermann, v.13, 1913)
