Siri (the company) was a spin-off from SRI – Stanford Research Institute.
The initial product, before the Apple acquisition, was an iPhone app with a chat interface. I don't recall that it supported voice input.
It is still possible that the founders were thinking ahead to voice input and wake words when they named the company.
