The general intent is the same in that both are asking for the listener's opinion as to what the gift will/should be.
I'd say that 'should' is only slightly more tenative in this case.
'shall' holds the same meaning and force as 'will' and 'be going to'.
What
will we give her as a gift?
What
are we
going to give her as a gift?
