Honoring Giovanni and George

Boy Names
1

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] guys! I’ve decided that if I ever have a boy I would love for his middle name to honor my grandfather’s who passed before I was born: [name_m]Giovanni[/name_m] and [name_u]George[/name_u]. The only name I can think of that I like is [name_m]Giorgio[/name_m], due to its Italian origins and direct connection to [name_u]George[/name_u], but I would like to have more options to choose from.

Thanks!

[name_m]Giovanni[/name_m] is a variant of [name_m]John[/name_m], so any version of [name_m]John[/name_m] should work!
Here are some:
[name_m]Gian[/name_m]
[name_u]Gianni[/name_u]
[name_u]Evan[/name_u]
[name_m]Ian[/name_m]
[name_m]Jack[/name_m]
[name_m]Ivan[/name_m]
[name_m]Hans[/name_m]
[name_u]Sean[/name_u]
[name_m]Johan[/name_m]
(more can be found here 119 Variations of John | Nameberry)

[name_m]Giorgio[/name_m] is nice! For [name_u]George[/name_u], other ideas could be…
[name_m]Georgios[/name_m]
[name_m]Georg[/name_m]
[name_m]Gino[/name_m]
[name_u]Georgie[/name_u]
[name_u]Jory[/name_u]

Since [name_m]Giovanni[/name_m] is just a variant of [name_m]John[/name_m], you can combine them to make [name_m]Jorge[/name_m] or Geohn!

Thankyou! I really like [name_u]Gianni[/name_u], [name_m]Gino[/name_m] and [name_u]Georgie[/name_u]. [name_u]Georgie[/name_u] was my grandfather [name_u]George[/name_u]’s nickname so I’d love to incorporate it.

Giorgio really seems perfect.

Maybe [name_m]Geordie[/name_m]?

Would something like [name_m]Gregory[/name_m] work or are you looking only for versions of [name_u]George[/name_u] and [name_m]Giovanni[/name_m]?

You could always go with [name_m]Giovanni[/name_m] as a first and [name_u]George[/name_u] as a middle! I think [name_m]Giovanni[/name_m] [name_u]George[/name_u] is cute. [name_u]Gio[/name_u] is a cute nickname too

I’d prefer versions of [name_u]George[/name_u] and [name_m]Giovanni[/name_m] but something similar would work

Giorgio is great!

Gian
[name_m]Geo[/name_m]
[name_m]Virgil[/name_m]

Gene and [name_m]Gino[/name_m] were my first thought.
