Me too - 'cause if you pronounce it correctly, nobody knows what you're on about!
In Japanese, consonants are always paired with a vowel. The only exception is "n", which is more like the French "n" in "un bon vin blanc"."Gi" and "ge" are always a hard "g", like in English "get" and "git". If it's a soft "j" sound like English "jet" or "Jim", it'll be written with a "J".
Same with Sugino.
