The name is like saying the letters I O, with the J sound prefixed,
but not pronouncing the letter J distinctly like the I and O, let the
J blend into the I.  Then get a bit lazy with the separation of I and
O too so it all flows with no breaks.

A friend pointed out the similarity to the Chinese word Jiayou:

Which might actually be appropriate, considering the exploration
of io_uring performance aspect.  "Give it more gas!"
