Funniest misspellings of character names.

I'll start:

I've seen Ned Flanders from The Simpsons misspelled as "Ded Flanders", "Ned Slanders", and "Ned Flounders".

I've also seen Morticia from The Addams Family misspelled as "Mortician".

A lot of people in The Flash (2014)'s fandom don't know how to spell Caitlin Snow's name- I've seen it spelled Caitlyn, Kaitlin, Katelynn, etc. That in and of itself isn't too funny, but one fan took it to the next level by (deliberately) misspelling her name as "KVII Ilynn."

One time I was with my grandma at a pop culture store and she saw some Mr Meeseeks key chain things and she called them "Rickenmorts"

I don't know if this counts but... it's funny

Building on Rick and Morty, I once thought "Meeseeks" was spelled "Meekseeks."

Jegus.

These are nothing compared to the official spellings of Hunter × Hunter names

Chrollo Lucilfer: Quwrof Wrlccywrlir

Hisoka: Hyskoa

Kurapika: Curarpikt

Pakunoda: Phalcnothdk

The english translations don't use these spellings, for obvious reasons

I've seen Harold constantly mispelled as "Herald" before.

Speaking of Total Drama, I've seen Bridgette misspelled as Birdgette, and it makes me imagine her as a bird.

Also, I once saw Godzilla spelt as "Godzelda".

Marge and Boy Sampson

It's minor but I have a friend who doesn't know much about Homestuck who always spells Nepeta's name as Nepata and I never corrected him because I think it's funny that he's innocently unaware that he's been writing it wrong since years.

My autocorrect/voice-to-text has misspelled Kendal as Candle, Kendall, and Kindle.

It's often interesting to read discussions of manga/anime in the West before they are officially licensed, because a lot of times, character names can be way off from their official (or, in HxH's case, reader-friendly) spellings. I recently read this 1999 review of the Hunter × Hunter manga that was cited on its Wikipedia page.^note The manga was first licensed in 2005. Reolio? Clapika? Even for unofficial spellings, these are a bit off

Note: for those unfamilliar, Hunter x Hunter takes place on a Fictional Earth-style Constructed World with its own languages and its own writing system. It would make sense to officially spell the characters' names to look like Black Speech, since quite a few languages seem hard for non-natives to pronounce when transliterated.

"Diara" instead of "Daria"

Nick Le instead of Nickel. Bonus points for the misspelling being an actual character!
