A misspelling magnet

The generator records 14 spelling variants around Cunningham (IPA /ˈkʌ.nɪŋ.hæm/), aproper noun. Corpus frequency is #41,837 among 77,812 “C” headwords. Dominant gloss: "Apellido".

Our generated misspelling index lists 14 likely wrong-spelling variants for Cunningham, with forms such as "ccunningham", "cnuningham", and "cuningham". Every one of these variants traces to a single-character edit -- an added or dropped letter, a swapped consonant, or a vowel swap -- the kind of slip a spell-checker is built to catch. It is not paired with a close-neighbour confusable in our dataset, which typically means the spelling is too distinctive to be mistaken for another word.

This entry carries no recorded etymology, so its spelling pattern is best understood through pronunciation rather than a traceable origin. The correct Spanish form is Cunningham, spelled C-U-N-N-I-N-G-H-A-M.
