Gigi 1

This name is so beautiful. I wish more people had this name.

I like the name Gigi but only when it is pronounced Zhee-Zhee because it sounds more French if you know what I mean. It sounds elegant but childish.

Isn't this what some kids call their grandmothers?

I love it but only pronounced Gee-Gee.

Funniest thing about having this name is to see how people smash it up into new lil' names for me, "gg, gege, gjgj" I used to dislike it but it's really grown on me.

Cute nickname.

I know a little girl named Giana (a lovely name I may use in my book) who often goes by Gigi. It's a really sweet nickname, and fun to say.

I have always been proud to be a Gigi. I am of Spanish and Cuban decent and I think mine is by far the most unique name in the family, Lol.

Can't stand the name myself... went to school with a strange girl named Gigi, with a German surname. We couldn't figure out if it was a nickname or her real name. I never saw this girl speak. Not once. And to top it off she was ugly lol.

But, years later I met a German woman who started talking about names and she said Gigi was pronounced GIGGY in Germany. I laughed and laughed. It sounded so goofy to me, especially due to the weird girl at school. I named my hamster GIGGY and to me, no matter how you say it, it's a goofy nickname.

If you look up 'Grandma' in Polish you will get Gigi as one of the names. My daughter wanted me to have a fun grandma name. Not just grandma so we looked it up based on my nationality and she wants me to be Gigi because it is fun like me.

I love the name Gigi because its short and easy to pronounce. I'm Gillian so in short I am called GiGi, which is adorable.

My 7 year old's best friend is named Gigi, and I absolutely love it. It fits her perfectly - I couldn't imagine this sweet, beautiful and spirited girl being named anything else! Those who don't like the name probably haven't met a Gigi yet.

I like how people's attitudes have changed in the last 10 years just reading all the comments above me! From "it's a name for a poodle, sorry!" to... "there's a model, New York socialite, youtube personality, etc. named Gigi"! How much time changes. This just proves there is no such thing as a good or bad name, only thinking makes it so!

More of a nickname than a given name. Hard to imagine a Supreme Court Justice named "Gigi." A great nickname for Gwendolyn, Goldie, Gretta... or a girl who is a lot of fun, laughs a lot, and is warm and friendly.

My great grandmother went by Gigi. It's fun and cute!

The name Gigi is unique, common, simple, and well known. It is a perfect name for a girl. Its origin comes from Italy, Spain, and France among other countries. I personally would love to call my daughter Gigi. It is the sweetest name for a smart girl. The name resembles beauty, a warm heart, creativity, talented, and friendly, a person of nature and peace. Not only the name itself, but think about the personality a Gigi would show around others. "that girl named Gigi has a heart of gold".

Both my MIL and my mom have first names starting with G. So we are planning on naming our first born daughter both names and giving her the nickname GiGi, after the two G names. Adorable! And if she wants to use something more sophisticated she can use her full name.

My daughter is 3+ months. I named her Gigi because
My father in law's mom was called Gigi in our language.
In my language, I named my daughter Gigi doa.
Doa is tlicho for dora marie after my late mother in law.

Cute nickname for any name starting with G :)

Gigi sounds really trendy and posh- Love it! I think it would be great as a nickname for just about any G name but I like it as a full first name too.

A splendidly marvelous nickname. Wonderfully dressed in an antique glow; beauty, cosmopolitan, an old-world charm.
I had a relative (now deceased, regrettably) who held it-- which certainly gives emphasized life to my fondness of "Gigi."

The pronunciation favored personally is "GHIH-Ghee"; hard "G"s.

My real name is Georgine, but I have been called Gigi by my family and friends since I was a baby. I love it! I get so many positive comments on it, and will probably name my first girl Gigi. In a time where parents are trying to outdo each other with long, fancy names, Gigi is a breath of fresh air!

An okay nickname, though chichi.

This is a pretty unique name. Often when I hear the name Gigi, I think of a popular girl from someplace like New York or Chicago.

Gigi, is the cutest nickname someone could have. I call both my friends that are named Giselle "Gigi" and they love it.

Sounds like a good name for a poodle.

Gigi sounds to me like a bulky, abrasive nickname.

This name makes me think about an old, very rich woman who lives in a mansion and is over-the-top in every single way. This sounds like a better name for a poodle.

I like the name for pets better than people, but it's still very cute. :D

My Gandma's name was Virginia, but everyone called her Gigi. I love it! It makes me think of an artsy French girl.

The name Gigi is ok for a pet, but I would never name a child Gigi.

Gigi is also a cute nickname for a girl with the name Giana or Gianna.

Sounds like something you'd name a poodle (sorry!).
