A misspelling magnet
The generator records 11 spelling variants around Tochter (IPA [ˈtɔxtɐ]), anoun. Corpus frequency is #726 among 2,684 “T” headwords. Wiktionary lists 2 senses, so context still picks the gloss.
Our generated misspelling index lists 11 likely wrong-spelling variants for Tochter, with forms such as "otchter", "tcohter", and "tocchter".

It also participates in 6 confusable-pair relationships, "Toter", "Tücher", "Torhüter", and more, since the words sound or look close enough that writers reach for the wrong one mid-sentence.
This entry's etymology isn't recorded, so its spelling is easiest to reason about phoneme by phoneme, absent a documented history. The correct German form is Tochter, spelled T-O-C-H-T-E-R.
