Pronouncing the name like you would say 'guys' in English would get you very close. Then the G is getting pronounced fricative, something non-native speakers have a lot of trouble pulling off. My name is Gijs, and I have yet to experience the first time someone from another country pronounces my name right!

In Dutch the pronunciation ij is like the I in ice.

I think Gijs is a strong, modern sounding name. Definitely want to name my first son this.
