In the world, Hosa (Hosa 
, هوسا 
) is quite a rare gender-neutral first name. The given name Hosa is characteristic of Northern Africa, particularly Morocco, where it is quite a rare principally male, but very infrequently feminine name, Libya, where it is a rare masculine name, and Sudan. In absolute terms, it is the most numerous in Morocco, India, and Egypt. More prevalently, Hosa is the last name as well as the forename.
