Rather with "j", since Latin semivocalic "i" is rendered by Wulfila
usually through "j", as in Jesus, jota, Justus, ans sometimes also
Greek words where initial "i" stands before a vowel have alternative
spelling with "j": Iauraupaulis ~ Jairupulis, Iaurdanus ~ Jaurdanus,
Iudas ~ Judas, Iudaius ~ Judaius.
The spelling with "j" is closer to Gothic (and Germanic) phonology.
