  I thought Julia goolia was from never been kissed not the wedding singer.
  
  Eta oh I stand corrected that's Josie grosie
  
  I'd pronounce guila as goo lia...
  
  Since you aren't Italian I'd go with julia

  Giulia is the italian form..I like it. Julia is more suitable for America.

  I am seriously stunned here - people wouldn't use the name Julia b/c they are afraid someone will say Julia Goolia? Do you not realize that The Wedding Singer is just not that big of a deal and it's super generational? I just can't believe a beautiful, classic name would be ruined for you by a 90's teen movie. 

  And our kids will have no frame of reference for using it. What kid born in 2014 is going to quote a 90's movie?

  A really cool one, that's who!
  
  LONG LIVE THE 90'S YEW!

  
  
  
  Right?!?! Highfive!!

  I guess I'm the odd one out.....I LOVE the name Giulia, and would have used it for my daughter except I have a good friend named Julia and it seemed weird to me. However, my husband is Italian and I minored in the language in college, so I am familiar with the Italian spelling and its pronunciation. I think the name is close enough to Julia that people will recognize how to pronounce it.

  What about Giuliana? Italian and your hubs can still call her Jules.

  They're both beautiful and legitimate spellings. Which do you prefer? I say, go with that one. Side note: I'm really confused about how "Giu" = "Goo"... ?
