Speech input devices and accessible label

Hello everyone!

I have a page where multiple Buy now links are present, I have provided the
accessible label as 'Product name + Buy now' to make it descriptive. Does
this affect speech input users in any way? What would happen if a speech
user tried to activate a Buy now button without actually saying the product
name along with Buy now? Is this a commonly understood practice for a
speech input user to say the product/related name first and then buy now?
There are a lot of things I feel are confusing me here, somebody provide
some insights please. I really appreciate every response.

Thank you,
Alyssa.
