My French is really limitted to the bit my Gram has taught me about, and what I have gathered from ballet training. I am going to try and answer anyway... the "H" in French is silent, which is why I was completely disregarding it and starting Ghislaine with the "zs" sound since that is how it works when the "G" comes before an "I". I know that "is" can be pronounced "ee" at the end of words (fleur de LIS), but I don't know/think it works the same in the middle. At least I haven't seen it, but like I said my French is there but a limited. Anyway, if he is saying it as in fleur de lis the "s" has gone silent and basically been dropped.
