I'm surprised nobody else mentioned this, but V8 is just a JavaScript engine, not a Web Browser or web rendering engine. Blink is the name for the broader web rendering engine behind Chromium and a number of other browsers.

So WebKit, Blink/Chromium, and Gecko are the main ones to my knowledge.

Webkit has a shared history with Blink, so even the two alone would result in the most portable tech having only a single, forked implementation.
