I was wondering, _______ gift is this?

Whose: Used to ask which person owns or is responsible for something.

Example: "Whose shoes are these?"

Who: Used to ask about the subject of a sentence (the person doing the action).

Example: "Who bought this gift?"

Whom: Used to ask about the object of a verb or preposition (the person receiving the action).

Example: "To whom should I give this gift?"

When: Refers to time, not people or objects.
