Meaning and background
The story behind Gogi
Gogi has a specific recorded use in Georgian naming: გოგი is an affectionate short form of Giorgi, the Georgian equivalent of George. The source supplies a Georgian pronunciation of roughly GAW-gee, with two syllables. Because the meaning of George belongs to the longer ancestral name, Gogi should not be presented as a separate Georgian dictionary word meaning farmer. The diminutive relationship itself is the well-supported finding.
