I was pronouncing it “Jizz Lane” and found out it is a hard G.

    You’re describing Guylaine and Ghislaine which are just two completely different names.

      No, they’re the same name. Guylaine is a respelling of Ghislaine that makes the pronunciation more obvious, like how Jeffrey is a respelling of Geoffrey.

      They seem different to you because you’re using the non-traditional pronunciation of Ghislaine.
