HelpGillian / Jillian
WDYTO Gillian / Jillian? Do you pronounce them differently?
I knew a Jillian in primary school and didn't like her very much, so that put me off the name for a while, but I'm beginning to like it. I pronounce Jillian with a soft /g/ (as in "job") and Gillian with a hard /g/ (as in "got"). I pronounce them differently partly because I find it more intuitive with the spelling, and also because of Gillian Welch (an awesome singer) who pronounces her name with a hard /g/.
