Cortana sounds like a mouthful. Imagine saying "Cortana" everytime you want to tell it something. And I imagine it would be even more embarassing to do it in public than it is for saying "Siri".
- dnautics 13y agosaying "ok google now" (Moto X) is terrible. Especially when it fails about half the time. on the other hand it's incredibly unlikely anyone will name their child "ok google now"
- miguelrochefort 13y agoI want to be able to wake up with Moto G with "what up g!".
- nivla 13y agoCortana is in reference to the AI of popular game Halo so its less awkward to those who know the reference. Had Cortana come before Siri, saying Siri would now have sounded silly. Most uncommon names sounds silly in the beginning but it blends in as time passes. Also from what I have read, you don't need to start a sentence with Cortana to get its attention.
