Gunslinger Girl - José? Giuse?

[djtrickz]

after watching the "official" subs of Gunslinger Girl 4 years later i just can't stop wondering. why is José's name Giuse? did i just hear it wrong the first time before? Or is Giuse how José is spelled in Italian?

It's Giuse in the official manga too, so it's got to be something like that. Giuse is probably just a foreign name that that we've never heard before.
