If it were to be pronounced in english, it would be most likely pronounced "cree-ah" and not "cree" Because ... english just isn't like that at all. But if she pronounces it as ku ray ah then thats how it is. Although its probablly more like kraya, they just have a hard time dropping the "u."
Just because it is made up of Roman letters, doesn't mean it's not Japanese, just lok at the song SAKURAドロプス, with that logic, would you think that Sakura was an english word and drops was a Japanese word?
