I keep hearing how it's a nn for Josephine, but I have truly never come across it used that way. The only Posy I ever read about was a little kids' picture book by I think Charlotte Zolotow about a little girl named Posy/Posey. It was apparently not short for anything. All the Josephines I've read about (never met one in real life) went by Jo or Josie.
