Pronounced “g” or “g”?

Well g is the 7th letter sooo

The person who created "g" said it's pronounced "g" so that's the correct answer.

At the very least it's not incorrect.

I heard “g” was created at around the same time in two different parts of the world. One of them claims it to be pronounced “g” and the other claims it to be pronounced “g.”
