I pronounce Joel like that. It's the regular German pronunciation of the name and the only one I like. I didn't know it was considered wrong.
I hate the Italian Gi- thing as well. It's luckily not as common, but what I hate even more is that I know a Guiliana who pronounces her name joo-lee-AH-nah. It doesn't even make any sense.
