“Anubis” is the Greek version of his name, so it’s probably pronounced something like AH-noo-beece, with the emphasis on the first syllable.

Nah, it’s just not a great pun.

plus a lot of Egyptian pronunciation was made up in the 1930s, and nowadays we know differently but the original names stuck
