oh no! the audience is 50-50 too. Girls, how would you pronounce the name "Gillian"?

"G" as in giraffe. I have always heard it pronounced "Jillian" I have always supposed that this is the root name for those nicknamed or named "Jill".
When you call her, just ask her which way she pronounces her name. She is probably used to people not being sure, and would appreciate being asked, rather than having to correct you.

"g" as in "girl"
I'm almost certain.
Good night!
On second thought, if it's a woman you're talking about, the "giraffe" pronunciation is more likely. Sounds more feminine. Good night!

It's one of my favourite names, I can never decide if I like it better pronounced Lenn-ah or Lee-nuh, I like both the same so I just say whatever comes out. Lol

The girraffe option is the one most commonly used.
