JOCELYN POSSIBLE
  Previous Character Next Character  

Most vividly, Jocelyn Possible departs from the consistent rhyming theme of the Possibles (phonetic -im), whilst adopting a new theme-- a syllabic parallelism, the first in fact (Joss - Poss), with the Joss sobriquet. There is similarity to consistency, in that "Jocelyn Possible" - "(in)possible," where the consonantal bridge creates the illusion of an "m" sound to supplant that of the "n," but this is not as smooth as other nominal kin. More abstrusely, the capitonym "joss," as defined by dictionary.com, is "A Chinese god worshipped in the form of an idol;" or rather, a tangible effigy that is worshipped. Certainly Joss has many tangible effigies of Kim, and certainly she could be said to worship them; thusly, inspiration could be said to have been taken from the capitonym. An alternative or coinciding hypothesis is "Joss Possible" - "just possible," a phonetic correspondence that is hypothesized to illustrate her dynamic attitude paired with her apparent inability to follow it through.
