I'm not a native English speaker and wasn't familiar with the femalish name 'Joyce' so it didn't bother me the way it did you.
Here's a name-meaning link: www.behindthename.com/name/joyce. Seems it's not strictly a female name and contain both the meaning rejoice and lord. The earlier male version was spelled Josse. I'm not sure how Medieval pronounciation makes it sound. Probably Germanic sounding.
I had no idea that Joyce was not exclusively a feminine name, Shadowbinding Shoe! Thank you for the link and your understanding! LOL, I'm now realizing that we can all pronounce the names as seems good to us. I apologize for making much ado about nothing!
