How is the name supposed to be pronounced? It looks like the two English words hunt and lie which doesn't sound very nice.

It really isn't though. Any native English speaker is going to see Hunt Lie.

I am not a native speaker, but the very first thing I saw was "Hunt Lie". It conveyed the message "Product Hunt, but for scam".

"Huntly", maybe?
