It's "fury phone": > Furious Support from the FuriOS team

  They could say it's pronounced "Wendigo" and people would still read it "Furry".

    If people read "fury" as "furry" then that's a literacy problem.

      As someone who reads/watches a lot of Japanese media, "fury" isn't how I would first read "furi". I do like "FuriOS" and think it avoids this issue, but other portmanteaus might be better avoided.

      You’re right. And if you can’t understand why almost everyone will read ‘furi’ as furry and not ‘fury’, then you’ve got a phonics problem.
