Gigi, Gigio, Gino, and Luigino are Italian equivalents of the English name "Louie." The above-mentioned masculine diminutives all serve as affectionate nicknames for the masculine proper name Luigi ("Lewis" or "Louis"), whose origins trace back to the Frankish Hlodowig("glorious in battle"). The respective pronunciations will be "DJEE-djee," "DJEE-djo," "DJEE-no," and "lwee-DJEE-no" for the nicknames and "LWEE-djee" for the forename in Italian.
