Maybe someone at the LibO mailing list can say? They've been discussing
the pronunciation of LibreOffice. I don't know if anyone's said about
LibO; I've been too busy to read most of the notes.

FWIW, I would say "Lee-breh-Office" and "Lee-boh" since it has European
language roots where an "i" is often pronounced "ee". They could also be
said with the "i" as in the English "Liberty" but definitely NOT with a
long "i" (as in "I").
