Goggi (Icelandic: [ˈkɔcːɪ], Italian: [ˈɡɔddʒi]) is both an Icelandic given name and an Italian surname. Both originate from equivalents of the masculine given name George: in Icelandic, it is a pet name for Georg; in Italian, it is originally a patronymic from a pluralized form of Goggio (an old variant of Giorgio), and is chiefly found in the areas of Alessandria and Pavia.[1]
