This trope is under discussion in the Trope Repair Shop. This trope describes names and other terms which are not spelled consistently in officially published materials (and not fan-made translations), usually because of transliteration issues. This most commonly happens in translations of Japanese media including Anime & Manga, although it also crops up in other languages. Situations include anything from vowel additions to unique-cipher dropping due to phoneme sets and writing systems. English, for example, is famous for many ways and rules of spelling (e.g., Americans generally dropping extra vowels such as in the word color, as compared with its Commonwealth spelling colour), despite having far fewer actual sounds they represent. Japanese has separate vowel-heavy syllabic and ideographic writing systems. Spanish has several familiar-looking letter combinations intended to be pronounced in specific ways. Complicating the issue is that some names simply become popular enough in other languages that they're modified to fit them better, and you can't be sure if it's actually intended to be meaningful. In other cases there may be a specific foreign name that the original writer clearly intended given context, but which the translator was apparently not aware of and so erroneously interpreted. Related to Adaptation Dye-Job (and/or other Adaptation Tropes, as the case may be). Compare with Rouge Angles of Satin, when a word or name is spelled incorrectly in a way that it is confused with another existent word, and Viewer Name Confusion, for when the name is spelled consistently but the viewers get it wrong. noreallife |

With Noonbory and the Super 7, the most common spelling inconsistencies come from Mamby/Mambi, Jetybory/Jettybory, and Kikibory/Kikybory. Of these, the former of each are considered the official spelling (Mamby and Kikibory even have their names directly confirmed by episode titles). | |

The Sunrider games and their official website seem to be in disagreement over how certain characters’ names should be spelt. Is Sola’s full name Sola di Ryuvia, or Sola vi Ryuvia? Is it Claude Trilleo, or Claude Triello? The games consistently use the former spellings, while the website and promotional materials use the latter. | |

Carry On Loving: There is much debate as to whether Richard O'Callaghan's character is called "Bertram" or Bertrum". The DVD subtitles call him Bertram with an "a". Also, while his surname is often spelt "Muffet", the script gives it as "Muffett". In addition, there is also the issue of whether the surnames of Hattie Jacques and Terry Scott's characters' names end with a double "t" or not. The DVD subtitles use "Plummet" and "Philpot". Also, if Janet Mahoney's character's name ends with an "e" or not. The DVD subtitles call her "Gaye". |

Carry On... Series: Carry On, Sergeant: The distributing media don't know whether to write William Hartnell's character's surname as either "Grimshaw" or "Grimshawe". Neither does the film itself, as the former spelling is used on the door of his quarters, and the latter is used on the chart showing the progress of his squad. Dora Bryan's character is called "Norah" but the name has also been given as "Nora" from time to time. Carry On Loving: There is much debate as to whether Richard O'Callaghan's character is called "Bertram" or Bertrum". The DVD subtitles call him Bertram with an "a". Also, while his surname is often spelt "Muffet", the script gives it as "Muffett".

Also, if Janet Mahoney's character's name ends with an "e" or not. The DVD subtitles call her "Gaye". Carry On Henry: While Julian Orchard's character's name is often spelt the "Duc de Poncenay", according to behind-the-scenes material, his character is actually the "Duc de Pincenay". Carry On Abroad: Barbara Windsor's character's last name is sometimes mistakenly spelt with a "p". However, both a place card with her name and the DVD subtitles correctly spell it as "Tomkins". Whether Peter Butterworth's character's name is spelt with an "e" or an "é" is up for debate. The script calls him "Pepe", while the DVD subtitles call him "Pépé". Is Nicholas' last name spelt "Phipps" or "Fipps"? Is Ray Brooks' character called "Giorgio" or "Georgio"? The DVD subtitles use the former. Carry On Dick: There is debate as to if Barbara Windsor plays a character called "Harriet" or "Harriett". The DVD subtitles use the former spelling. The DVDs can't decide if John Clive's tailor character is called "Isaac" or "Isaak". |

RWBY: Death Stalkers were spelled "Deathstalkers" in official subtitles when first introduced in Volume 1, Episode 8. However, from the ninth episode, both in-universe spelling and the official subtitles spell it as two words. While other spelling inconsistencies in early subtitles for Volume 1 (such as "Grimm" missing a "m" in the pilot episode) appear to have been corrected over time, this inconsistency remains. Almost all official material spells Neo's name as "Neopolitan", including Chibi, Combat Ready, Monty Oum's facebook page and the 2019 Companion book. However, both RWBY: Amity Arena and BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle have it spelled "Neo Politan" based on the references files Amity received. |

Wonder Woman: Is Diana's mother's name spelled Hippolyta or Hippolyte? Both have been used in canon, but the first is more common. Wonder Woman (1942): Diana's merman friend's name has been spelled Ronno and Renno. In the Golden Age the Heyday gals were triplets and their names were spelt Tillie, Millie and Lillie. The Legend of Wonder Woman (2016) reduces the Holliday Girls siblings to twins, and spells their names as Tilly and Milly. |

In The Dolls of New Albion, Annabel McAllistair's surname is spelt multiple different ways within the lyrics of the album, and there's not much fan consensus on which spelling is the definite one. Furthermore, even her first name changes significantly, being spelt alternately Annabel and Annabelle at the beginning (though Annabel seems to be more definitive, as that's the spelling used in the song titles) and later in the album changing to Annabella. | |

The Nostalgia Critic: It's ambiguous whether the resident Loony Fan character is spelled "Hyper Fan Girl" or "Hyper Fangirl." Most video titles and promotional material spell "Fan Girl" as two words, which gets confusing as fangirl is typically spelled as a single word. However, some material (such as the title of her Q&A video and her eponymous song on the Phantom of the Opera musical review album) refers to her as "Hyper Fangirl." In her hate comments video, Hyper claims that "Fan Girl" is a misspelling of her name...despite the title of that very video spelling her name as "Fan Girl." | |

Godzilla: Jeffrey Angles' afterword in Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again notes that the script for Godzilla uses ÅŒto Island rather than the more popular fan-spelling "ÅŒdo Island", but that he decided to go with the fan convention with his translation to avoid angering hardcore fans. In almost all English versions except Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II (1993), the monster Radon (from "pteranodon") is called Rodan. Speculation as to why it was changed includes confusion with the element radon and a conflict with the name of a British brand of soap; nobody's exactly sure why. There's also King Shisa, whose name in English is spelled either King Seesar or King Caesar. |

beatMARIO's Touhou arrange track ナイト・オブ・ナイツ can be read as "Night of Nights", "Knight of Nights," "Night of Knights", or "Knight of Knights". The artist has stated that all four readings are correct. Thus, things get awkward when the title has to officially appear in Roman script; the English-language versions of maimai and Groove Coaster in particular write out "Night of Knights / Knight of Nights" as if the developers narrowed it down to two choices but couldn't decide further. | |

In the first case of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All, police officer Maggey Byrde is put on trial for the murder of her coworker and boyfriend Dustin Prince. One piece of evidence that would implicate Maggey is a photo of the victim, who seemed to have written his killer's name in the sand shortly before death. There is one problem with this piece of evidence, however: the name is spelled "Maggie", which would indicate that whoever wrote it only heard her name, but didn't know how it was spelled. One would think Prince would know the spelling of his own girlfriend's name, which is a major piece of evidence exonerating Maggey. | |

Gamera 3: Awakening of Irys: Irys's name is just as often spelled as Iris, like the flower, and nobody can really agree on which spelling to use. It's also worth noting that Iris/Irys is an in-universe nickname derived from a deceased cat. The creature's actual name in mythology and records is Ryuseicho, which in turn is derived from the quadrants of the sky that the Vermilion Bird constellation is in. |

Saber from Fate/stay night is identified in Character Material IV as "Altria," but the most commonly-used spelling according to Google is "Arturia," followed by "Artoria." Both have their logical points: Saber is, in fact, King Arthur. "Arturia" could be a plausible feminization of Arturus, while "Artoria" IS the feminine of Artorius, a Roman family name some historians have connected to the Arthur legend. Some fans argue that "Altria" is canon, while others say that it should be given no more credence than El-Melloi II being styled "Load" instead of "Lord." Other Type-Moon examples: Is Ilyasviel's Servant Herakles, Heracles or Hercules? Is Ilyasviel herself spelled with one or two L's in the first syllable? Fate/Grand Order threw the fandom a curveball by apparently romanizing Mashu's name as "Matthew." For the moment it seems she's been canonized as just "Mash." |

An American Tail: Fievel, who is listed as "Feivel" in the beginning credits of the first movie, which is the actual Yiddish spelling. The spelling was changed to "Fievel" to avoid confusing American audiences who might otherwise pronounce it as "Fay-vel", but in other countries where the movie was released the "Feivel" spelling was left intact.

Jeffrey Angles' afterword in Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again notes that the script for Godzilla uses ÅŒto Island rather than the more popular fan-spelling "ÅŒdo Island", but that he decided to go with the fan convention with his translation to avoid angering hardcore fans. | |

Almost all official material spells Neo's name as "Neopolitan", including Chibi, Combat Ready, Monty Oum's facebook page and the 2019 Companion book. However, both RWBY: Amity Arena and BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle have it spelled "Neo Politan" based on the references files Amity received. | |

When the Sabrina the Teenage Witch comic came out it was "Sabrina the Teen-Age Witch". Over time the spelling of "teenage" changed and with it the series' title. | |

Carry On, Sergeant: The distributing media don't know whether to write William Hartnell's character's surname as either "Grimshaw" or "Grimshawe". Neither does the film itself, as the former spelling is used on the door of his quarters, and the latter is used on the chart showing the progress of his squad. Dora Bryan's character is called "Norah" but the name has also been given as "Nora" from time to time. |

Homestar Runner: Doreauxgard. The only source for the spelling of his name is an XML file. Some senders of Strong Bad Emails misspell Strong Bad's name as Strongbad, which he often mocks and corrects. Peasant's Quest also does this — if you type "make friends with Kerrek", the game responds "Look, it didn't work for Strongbad and it's not gonna work for you either." |

Ric Flair's first name would sometimes have a "k" at the end. The most infamous instance of this was the "Rick Flair◊" nameplate on the Big Gold Belt, which was later replaced with a new nameplate without the "k" on "Ric". | |

My Little Pony: The Movie (1986): It's not clear how the plant that Reeka and Draggle are sent to harvest sap from and/or its same are supposed to be spelled. "Phlume", "Flume" and "Floom" all get the sound across, but no official spelling was ever released during G1's run. My Little Pony Generations eventually settled on "Flume", providing the first official written spelling of the word after thirty-five years. | |
