That is correct! Pronunciation and even word meaning changes over time anyway so no reason to get wrapped around an axle based on something so transient
Ok this should settle it all. This is DIRECT from Audiusa.com:
In 1909 August Horch got into a dispute with the supervisory board of A. Horch & Cie. Motorwagen-Werke AG. Horch left the company he had set up. Shortly after, on 16 July 1909, he established a second company, Horch Automobil-Werke GmbH, in the same city. Horch lost the legal dispute over the company name. However, a solution to the problem was found: the Latin translation of his name (the German word for “hark!”). The new company name, Audiwerke GmbH, became effective on 25 April 1910.
