Romaji is usually phonetic, rather than by-the-letter, largely because words in alphabetic writing systems tend to break their own rules in regards to spelling rather frequently, since many if not most/all are conglomerations of words and particles from other languages. Sometimes those words have their spellings changed to better match the spelling of other words, but spercifically in english they tend to stay close to their original spelling.

A silent t is quite common in french, so sorbet is pronounced Sore-bay. Sorbei is the Japanese equivalent.

EDIT: I guess you are talking about ON the toy though, making it diegetic, so i suppose its possible there is some relevant pun as well.
