Our generated misspelling index lists 5 likely wrong-spelling variants for mimi, with forms such as "immi", "miim", and "mimmi".

It also participates in 20 confusable-pair relationships, "mm", "moi", "mis", and more, since the words sound or look close enough that writers reach for the wrong one mid-sentence.
