Gigi

[WhiteFlorentine]

What do you think of this for a girl and pls recommend me other names based on this💫

It sounds like a nickname.

Unfortunately it brings to mind the movie in which I believe the girl nicknamed Gigi was being groomed to be a courtesan.

But it could be short for Georgia, Georgina, Georgiana, Giana/Gianna, or any name starting G really.

Reminds me of nicknames like Lulu (Lucy, Lucille, Luella, Louise) or Riri (Rita), Libby (Elizabeth), Kitty (Catherine/Katherine).

It depends on how its said, If you're pronouncing it Gee-Gee I quite like it.
I would assume it was short for Giana.Georgia/Georgina. I don't like Giggy though.

Other suggestions.
Kiki. Saskia. Keira. Lakisha.

Raya
Tiana
Nyra
Nova
Cece. Celia.
Fifi. Fiona. Phoebe
Vivi. Vivienne.
Via. Olivia. Octavia.
Zsa Zsa.
Jovie.

Sorry, i think it's pretty awful and unless you're french people will probably pronounce it more like geegee as if she's a horse!

I'd always think it was short for Genevieve as I know two Gigis who are Genevieve.

Spencer Matthew's and Vogue Williams' daughter is Gigi

Traditionally it was short for Josephine.
The 'g' at the beginning is a soft sound in French, similar to the beginning of Joseph (in French).

As pp suggested Gigi (pronounced Jeejee) is traditionally a nickname for any girls name starting with a Jee sound (like Gia) but especially double G names like Georgia/Georgina.

Similar sounds would be Cece (Cecilia), Mimi (Miriam), Vivi (Vivien), Evie (Evelyn), Bibi (Beatrice), Fifi (Sophia) etc.

That's really interesting. I knew Gigi had French origins, but not that it could be short for Josephine - lovely.

I think celebrity pop culture:

Youtube personality
"Gigi Gorgeous"

Spencer and Vogue's daughter Gigi

Gigi Hadid

For similar names I think:

Cece
Mimi
Jojo
Coco
Lulu
Lola
Mila
Bella
Monet

I like it and it's a possible2 nickname for DD name

I prefer a hard G like gigi hadid (,also love her full name jelena so so much)

Dreadful. Unless you are a drag queen or prostitute

People singing Thank heaven for little girls might be annoying.
Gigi was short for Gilberte.

my daughter’s name is georgiana and whilst we mostly shorten to georgie both her brothers call her gigi.

It can be a shortening for Giselle, which is beautiful.

RIRI are yu serious

Gina
Fifi

no.
sounds like a prostitute.
pick a proper name.

It sounds god awful. My local MP's newborn daughter is called gigi and its trashy and weird.

I know a Gigi who is just a Gigi and it’s awful, she wishes she had a formal name too.

I LOVE it but it is slang for penis where I live (not Europe so don't worry). Like it as a nn for Genevieve. Also love Cece!

Defiinitely not as a proper name. It's silly. Call her Genevieve, Ginevra or Georgina and use Gigi as a nickname.

I like it, I think it’s rather fun. I’d rather like to be named Gigi.

I think it's a boy's nickname in Italian? For Gianluigi?
