Our generated misspelling index lists 11 likely wrong-spelling variants for Antioche, with forms such as "anitoche", "anntioche", and "anticohe". Each variant is a distinct typo pattern an edit-distance generator flags, typically a doubled-consonant error, a silent-letter drop, or a vowel substitution. This entry stands alone in our confusable dataset, since its spelling is unusual enough that it doesn't cluster with a lookalike.

Our source data has no etymology on file for this entry, so its spelling is best explained by sound-to-letter mapping rather than etymology. The correct French form is Antioche, spelled A-N-T-I-O-C-H-E.
