Giusi is an Italian equivalent of the English name "Josie." The feminine diminutive serves as a nickname -- along with Beppina, Geppina, Nuccia, Peppina, Pina -- for Giuseppina ("Josephine"), the feminine equivalent of Giuseppe ("Joseph"), from the ancient Hebrew יוֹסֵף (Yosef) for "God will increase." The respective pronunciations will be "DJOO-see" for the nickname and "DJOO-sep-PEA-na" for the forename in Pisan Italian.
