The band Chvrches chose to use the the Roman "u" to spell their name so they'd be easier to search.

Kind of hard to pronounce though. Like that jewellery brand, seemingly pronounced 'buffelgary' or something.

Sorta. It's still pronounced "churches", but it's definitely a common joke to pronounce it chivurches.
