Your friend & mine, Mr. Hertzman, said:

"Guibo or giubo? Think Giulietta or Guilietta. Guibo has roots in American English by now, and may (like Alpha Romero) outlast the Italian name in popular use..."

How about silly puns as mnemonics? If you're an opera freak, there's that famous aria from "Pagliacci", "Vesti di Giubo"...or if you dig Texas rock'n'roll, just remember Kinky Friedman and the Texas Giubos.

Hey, it might help. Or not.
