Here's a neat video published on Facebook. It shows several models from the Willys Motors Wagon line.

Am I the only one that wasn't raised calling them as "Willis"? A non-ending discussion I guess. Here's an interesting story line... https://www.toledoblade.com/local/2002/02/03/j-n-willys-pronounced-his-name-willis-local-jeep-historian-says.html I'm sticking with... sounds like "Willies"

Growing up, i had a 57 CJ-5. I always pronounced it Willies. A friend of the family, a generation older, pronounced it Willis. At the time, I thought he was wrong, but didn't bother to correct him. Now that I know I was the wrong one, will I change? Probably not.
