I'd pronounce it with the french word libre (free) and english office
/libʁə ˈɔfɪs/ (not sure about IPA, but you should
get the idea.

And regarding the Office part:
Calling it completely different might work for a single-purpose
application like a webbrowser or some other dedicated tool, or when
you don't give a damn about competitiors like Apple and have the
corresponding marketing machinery and blind followers.
