For what it's worth, the pronunciation is also described in the pom: https://search.maven.org/artifact/org.gebish/geb-core/3.4.1/jar. Apparently Luke Daley, who started the project, thought that tweaking the pronunciation will make the name more "catchy". So funny that ten years down the line this still comes up. :D
Btw, if you ever wondered what the meaning of Geb is, like I did a couple of years ago which made me ask Luke, then it stands for "groovy web".
