Pronunciation of Gianna . . .
in reply to a message by KristinT
Gianna, in correct Italian, is pronounced JAN-uh. Definitely NOT Zhoh-nuh or Gee-on-nuh. Don't argue with me on this, I studied Italian at university :-)
Gemma and Gianna are far too close, they'd never know which one you were calling for. Gemma and Zara or Gemma and Eliza work fine. My vote is for Zara.

Cool I love languages, I'm going to try and learn at least one other language than english, probably Japanese.
