Gigi

Meaning: (Brilliant, Trustworthy, Literary: the name of a young girl in a French novel by Colette, later made into an award-winning stage play and movie musical.)

Origin: (French)

Pronunciation: (zhee-ZHEE, JEE-jee, Most say it like GG)

Gender: Female

I first came across this name when I watched the movie Gigi which was made from the novel by Colette. In the movie Gigi was played by Leslie Caron. I like the movie a lot and I have mixed feelings about the name though. I heard the name again on the T.V Show Gilmore Girls. I would like to see it used more currently in a novel.
