if it was short for Josy though, then I'd say "Jose" as in rhymes with "close"

nose doesn't rhyme with close :nono: nose = knows, close = dose

Depends which close you're talking about

Close the door rhymes with nose
Stand close to the door rhymes with dose

I voted rhymes with Moss but I wouldn't actually say it like that if I were shortening Josys name, I'd say Joes, just that spelling Jos always reads like Joss to me

Depends

If its short for Josy then Jose rhyming with nose

But sometimes it would be pronounced the other way e.g. Jos Buttler
