Gif as in gift. Anything else is nonsense!

Ever seen a geriatric geologist named George at the gym? How about a giant ginger giraffe drunk on gin. What about a genderless genealogist cutting generic gems?

Sure, but JIF is a different file format, so pronouncing it as "jif" just creates overlap.

Also every single one of those G's should be replaced with the letter J; English needs spelling reform.

Combinations of letters before and after change the pronunciation of certain parts of a word. None of your words have "gif" pronounced a "jif". If you have one, tell me. I'm seriously curious if there is a word. As of now the only reference I have is "gift" with a hard g.
