I like Gia and June, but Gia June has the same hard J sound twice and very close together, so I wouldn't choose it. Maybe the J name should have more than 1 syllable so it flows better with the first hard J. Other possibilities with GJ:

---

Gia Jeanette
Gia Janelle
Gia Josephine
Gia Jacinth
Gia Jasmine
Gia Jocelyn
Gia Jezebel
Gia Jiselle

I think Gia-J sounds jarring as the J sounds are too close together. I agree it sounds like someone chewing. My suggestions:

---

Gloria Jasmine "Gia"
Gloria Juliet "Gia"
Genevieve June "Gia"
Gemma Jordana "Gia"

---

If you really want Gia as a full name (which I think is fine, plenty of people opt for Mia) then you might want to break up the J sounds:

---

Gia Annabel June
Gia Eloise June
Gia Summer June
Gia Emily June

---

OR go for a J name that actually starts with a Y sound. Like Gia Juanita.

I don't like the flow of Gia June. I'd prefer Gianna June or Gloria June

Gia looks and sounds like a nickname. I'd expect her to spend her life explaining that, no, that is her name, and no, it is the full name ... the flow of Gia June doesn't appeal to me, but the names are seldom used together so it might not matter.

---

I'd prefer a G sound, as in Gloria, to a J sound as in Gia. Calla and Greta? Calla and Gwenda? Calla and Gwyneth? Calla and Gillian? Calla and Gladys would be amazing! And, if it was my choice, I'd stay with Jean as the mn: apart from Great-Grandma, it's an anagram of her sister's mn, which would be a nice link.

Gia June sounds a bit like a tongue twister, I’d pick a name with a hard “g” sound, say Greta or Greer.

---

I don’t like Gia much anyway it sounds nicknamey and inconsistent.

It's fine!

---

I don't personally love the name Gia, and would suggest Gemma, Genna, Georgia, Gaia, Geneva, Glenna, Gioia, Gina, Giada, Gillian, Gilda instead.
I think Gemma and Calla would be perfect sister names. Also Geneva, Genna, Georgia, Jilly (Gillian). Giada June seems like a good combo if you are liking the Italian Gi- beginning.
if it were up to me, I'd name her Gemma Janine. Or maybe Gillian Joanna. Or Georgia Jean and call her Gigi.

Gia sounds like a nickname. Gloria is lovely.

Gia June is ok, Giana would be nice too

Gloria Jean is lovely!

---

I hate Gia, and Gia June sounds like gross chewing—sorry!

---

Gloria and Calla would be a cute sister set, but June and Jane are too close for my personal comfort.

---

Alternatives that could lead to Gia as a nickname:

---

Ginevra Gloria
Georgette Gloria
Georgia Gloria
Virginia Gloria
Eugenie Gloria

Gloria June would be so amazing though! Sisters Gloria and Calla! So glamorous.

---

Anyway. Gia June doesn't sound great. It's very clunky. What about Giana June, called Gia? That one rolls off the tongue a bit better.

There is nothing wrong with either name though I view Gia as a nickname rather than a full name. There is something jarring about the flow though in my accent.
