Gio-Goi...??

Poll

How is Gio-Goi pronounced....

Just to settle a little argument between me and a mate, how do you say 'Gio-Goi'...!?!?!

I think its like saying Geo-Goy..

My mate seems to think its Goy-Goy..

God knows... :woo:

Also, can anybody think of any other brands that have different pronunciations??

Iv got one - Nike..

Its so obvious that it is said like - Nike, but why do people insit on calling it Nikey???

Because the brand is named after the Greek goddess, whose name is pronounced 'Nikey' :indiff:

Ontopic, I'd pronounce it Geo - Goy.

My mates and I were arguing about this the other day, we weren't sure.

Goy goy sounds better though.
Geo-Goy

anyone who says it differently is clearly inbred
Clearly you know nothing about fashion.

How the hell can it be 'Goy Goy' when Gio and Goi are spelt differently?

Its Geo-Goy!
Geo Goy.

If it was Goy Goy surely it would be spelt the same in both words. D'uh!
Haha and I always thought it was 'Jo-Jo'?
