What does "li" stand for in lichess?

In English it's almost the opposite of "truechess"

When telling people to try this site, I'm thinking they may have the preconceived notion of the site as phony chess.
I think it is "libre" in french, which means "free" and it is pronounced "lee", not "lie".

The "li" stands for "libre", and uses the same pronunciation."
Perhaps "libro" meaning "book" in Spanish?

Being most here likely in United States you'd think the derivation would be from a word commonly used here. So how about "literal", "little", or "live"?
That is that thing donated by the French...
I heard of that statue. I could ask if you heard of the lithograph without additional wording and it wouldn't be clear if there were some substance to it.

libation, libel, liberal, libido ....
