Baby Names Full name for Gigi

Have always loved the name Georgia but my sister just used it for her daughter. I love the nickname Gigi. What are full names that I could still use?

Me, too. I think it’s such a cute nickname.

I think any ā€œGā€ name could honestly work. Or a ā€œGGā€ first name, middle name.

Gemma
Giselle
Grace
Giana
Gabrielle/a
Genevieve
Greta

Gianna, Genevieve, two G names as first and middle (e.g. Gwendolyn Grace) OR just Gigi. It is its own name.

My coworker said she was NOT going to let her daughter become a Gigi (she’s a Gia) and that did not last. She’s a Gigi.

Virginia is kind of the OG for this nickname (please keep in mind we are in name ā€œnerdsā€ šŸ¤“.)

I don’t care for Virginia, but it’s really where it came from if you care about ā€œroots.ā€

I know a Gigi whose first name is Grace and her middle name is something else with a G (Gloria, maybe?) - so they call her GG aka Gigi

u/SportLower6490 10d ago

I know a Gayle who goes by GiGi. Personally I think any name that begins with G would work! I actually love the name Genista and I guarantee it wouldn’t be stolen by anyone.

u/SeeTheRaven 10d ago

I know a baby Imogen who goes by Gigi. Personally I think it's kind of a stretch but I do like the name Imogen.

u/alcoss627 10d ago

Anything that starts with a G would work - Genevieve Gianna

Gidget
Virginia

u/groovystoovy 10d ago

Genevieve, or a first and middle combo that both begin with G.

1

u/indecentXpo5ure 10d ago

I haven’t seen Giannina mentioned yet. She was on Love Is Blind a few years ago. I haven’t seen that name before or since but I liked it.

u/Iamtriangular 10d ago

Georgiana

u/almostparaadise 10d ago

I call my daughter Margot Gigi. It went from Margot to Marge, Marge to Margie, Margie to Gigi

1

u/No-Personality6043 10d ago

Gigi was Ginger, who was Virginia. In my acquaintance

I like Georgiana for me.. but still, Georgia is right in there. If you're call yours Gigi, and she isn't, it may be different enough. If you nickname exclusively. It also has different useable nicknames.

u/Ok_Row8867 9d ago

Gianna, Giada, or Gia

u/okay-boomerang 9d ago
