Comments

For argument for a reading of 𓊨𓁹 as (W)sr(.w), see Jürgen Zeidler. 2000. Zur Etymologie des Gottesnamens Osiris. Studien zur altägyptischen Kultur 28, pp. 309–316. Online: https://www.jstor.org/stable/25152830.
However, J.P. Allen, lately argued for a reading as Js-jr(j); see: James P. Allen. 2014. The Name of Osiris (and Isis), in: Lingua Aegyptia 21, pp. 9–14.
For pragmatic reasons, the TLA currently keeps the traditional transliteration Wsjr.
