One thing that I've always wondered is why is Freya's Japanese name フライヤ (Fu-rai-ya) and not フレイヤ (Fu-rei-ya).

Translating it literally it makes it seem like her name is Fryer or Flyer. Her romanizaed name is Freija so it's obviously supposed to be Freya, but is there a reason the katakana doesn't match that? My Japanese knowledge is practically zilch so I've always been confused about it.
