For real though, their art generally depicts them using huge, flat-topped swords with very wide blades. The 2024 statblock also has a Hammer Throw attack. Many fire giants love to forge, so presumably any and all types of weapons would be in their wheelhouse, but they'll definitely lean towards weapons which utilize their immense strength.
Maybe take a bit of inspiration from the Ogres....strap a Howdah onto a Fire Giant, have it crewed by magma and steam mephits (small sized elementals) that use it as a launching pad to do flyby style attacks with their breath weapons and claws whilst the giant itself is armed with fallout 4 style harpoon gun......I may have over thought this.

Glaives could be fun for a fire giant. They're big, long, and heavy (I think). Plus, what's scarier than a flaming glaive?
Oh, that seems cool
In Dungeons & Dragons Minis for 3.5 Edition, King Snuur had a warhammer made of an anvil that had been mounted on a metal shaft.
Find your own truth, choose your enemies carefully, and never deal with a dragon.
"Canon" is what's factual to D&D lore. "Cannon" is what you're going to be shot with if you keep getting the word wrong.
