Gianozzi is Italian in Origin.
Gianozzi is an Italian name most often seen as a surname with Tuscan roots, derived from the medieval given name Gianozzo, a pet form of Giovanni (John). The -ozzo ending functions as an affectionate Tuscan hypocoristic, while the final -i marks a patronymic plural, yielding "the family/descendants of Gianozzo." Ultimately it traces back through Latin Iohannes and Greek Ioannes to Hebrew Yohanan, meaning "Yahweh is gracious" or "God is gracious."
As a given name, the base form Gianozzo was used in late medieval and Renaissance Florence - most notably borne by the humanist Gianozzo Manetti (1396–1459) - but Gianozzi today remains rare as a first name and is more familiar as a surname in central Italy. Close variants include Gianozzo and Giannozzo (given names), and Giannozzi or Iannozzi (surnames). Related Italian forms are Giovanni, Gianni, Gian, and Nanni.
We have no record of Gianozzi in any national birth registry or name dataset. Such a name is generally either rare, regional or traditional, or a brand-new coinage. By any reading, it's an exceptionally uncommon choice.
