The product comes from Frito-Lay, and the product combines the word "Cheese" and the name "Frito."
Hence, "Cheetos." I like 'em too.

Why Are Cheetos Called Cheetos

Cheetos are a crunchy, cheese-flavored snack made from cornmeal introduced by Frito-Lay in 1948, and currently sell about one billion bags per year in a number of countries. In some markets they are popular enough that the word "Cheetos" is often used as a generic term for any similar cheese puffs snack food, but it is, in fact, trademarked by the Frito-Lay company
