You can use steam family sharing to allow other accounts to play the game, but you can't gift games you bought for yourself to others.

As already posted, once youve activated a game key on your account, it is permanently fixed to your account.

You can buy games and gift them, of course. Just make sure you do precisely that and dont activate them yourself.

One small point to add to the above comment about family sharing. Use it with caution - unless you can trust another party, I wouldnt recommend it. If they, for example, cheat or do something awry, YOUR account will be compromised as YOU are responsible for it.

Just a heads up.
