So everyone knows that gif is pronounced "Jif" but few know how to actually pronounce GIMP.
GIMP stands for Gnu Image Manipulation Program.
A gnu, also know as a wildebeest is a type of african antelope, according to wikipedia the word is pronounced "gnu (/ˈnuː/ NOO[4][5][6] or /ˈnjuː/ NEW)[4][6]".
I have heard many refer to GIMP as "gimp" when in actuality it should be pronounced as "nimp".
Please spread the word so we can stop this ignorant behavior.

Jiraffics.
Everyone I know pronounces gif as gif. The only argument for jif is that the original author uses this pronunciation, and he deserves no respect anyway because of the whole patents debacle.

Jif is a brand of peanut butter. Gif ≠ jif
Gimp rymes with pimp and blimp

I say jif because g+i is ji in my language. If g+i is gui in yours, say guif, who cares?
>there's no rectangle tool

The creator of the format mentioned it was "jif", but it doesn't make sense because So it's a damn meme to pronounce it jif, while it makes sense to pronounce it gif
It's actually pronounced yiff.
