Will you pronounce Gianna the traditional way or do you have some other pronounciation in mind?

The traditional way.

Definitely Gianna then. Jiana will be pronounced “Gee-Ahn-Ah” three syllables instead of “Gian-na” (two syllables).

Huh??? For me, the traditional pronunciation of Gianna is gee-AH-nuh. And if I saw Jiana I would actually think it's a weird Spanish name and pronounce it he-AH-nuh, but just realized it could rhyme with Diana.

Gianna is an Italian name, pronounced more like two syllables instead of three.

Sorry, In the US, she’s going to get gee-AH-na.
Regardless, it’s beautiful pronounced both ways, OP. And you win with the spelling. Jiana is silly.

Oh, shut up! Marriage is not required to be a couple or a family.

+1 I don't like either, but if you're set on this name spell it with a G.

They are naming the baby after Kobe Bryant's daughter.

What? They’re both pronounced the same—Jee-Ah-Nuh. But Jiana just looks janky compared to Gianna.

"Jiana" is super trashy, just terrible.

Your boyfriend didn't go to college, right?

Sure. But he gets less rights if not married.

This is a polite way of saying that most Americans mispronounce Gianna. Same with problem with Giovanni.

Same problem with Giovanni. 3 syllables, not 4.

In Italian, Gianna is pronounced “JON-uh.” The “Gi” sounds like /j/.
Giovanni: Juh-VON-ee

Are you Italian? I mean really born and at least partly raised in Italy? If not then, please shut it. If so, I beg your pardon and apologize profusely for all of the unenlightened Americans you must endure. It must be awful.
