The name Hosea seems to have been common, and is derived from a related verb meaning 'salvation'. Numbers 13:16 states that Hosea was the original name of Joshua, son of Nun until Moses gave him the longer, theophoric name Yehoshua (Hebrew: יְהוֹשֻֽׁעַ, romanized: Yēhōšūaʿ) incorporating an abbreviated form of the Tetragrammaton.
