BajiRav Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 As much as I want Cortana... they need a two syllable word like Siri or Xbox or bing. Not to mention the "cultural sensitivities" of some countries that might object to a nude female form in their phone.

+primortal Subscriber² Posted September 13, 2013 Subscriber² Share Posted September 13, 2013 Personally and maybe its me but the name needs to be something that roll off the tong, too many syllables in Cortana. For all you know Microsoft will just call the assistant Bing....
