I agree with Chrisell that it would be pronounced with a soft "z" sound rather than a "ts" sound. However, I'm from the South of Italy and Northern dialects are quite incomprehensible for me, since there's great variety from one region to the other, actually I'd never heard of this form, which I suppose is a deformation of Gianni. So I'm not really sure how the pronounciation of the dialect of Veneto works.
