Our generated misspelling index lists 12 likely wrong-spelling variants for Bochumer, with forms such as "bbochumer", "bcohumer", and "bocchumer".

It also participates in 1 confusable-pair relationship, "Bochum", since the words sound or look close enough that writers reach for the wrong one mid-sentence.
