We pronounce it Gee-On-Ah.  Italians pronounce is John-Ah.  I hate when its pronounced Gee- Ann-Ah.

Ha, that's funny... I pronounce it the way you hate.  I better get my pronunciation straight before she becomes my DIL!

Whenever I read that name, I read it as Gina.

Wow, I am surprised at how many people pronounce this name incorrectly. I thought this was a pretty easy one for most people but apparently there are big pronunciation issues.Good to keep in mind.

Gee - ah - nah. so I think that's more "Gee-onna" for you. My cousin's daughter is named Gianna and that's how they pronounce it.

My ex boss went by GEE-ANNA so that is how I would say it. I have heard it the other way as well.
