haha maybe some of you have had nights like this..in fact, i'm sure most of you have. But I was out on Friday and having a killer time with friends and some new folks i had just met. One in particular I got along with really well and in the end she gave me her phone number.

Only problem is, having drank way too much I can't remember how to pronounce her name. I know it's not a big deal, but I'd rather call and get her name right

So, anyone know this one - Gili ? It's either Gee-lee or guh-lee ...like the 'g' on good. Her backround is israeli if this helps...

Thanks guys for saving me some face :D

...and by the way, anyone else been in this boat before? haha

I would pronounce it 'Jilly'

Or you call her Gigli and make a crack about that Jenifer Lopez movie

That's kinda funny! Sorry. I would go with the first pronounication there, but I don't have a clue! Did any of your friends meet her that maybe didn't have as much to drink? Good luck!!
