What's your favorite spellcheck suggested replacement?

Beat me to it. Tuberville comes out "Tubercular" in spellcheck.

Also, once worthed with a guy named Brian Moran. Spellcheck suggested "Brain Moron" for his name. Nice.

 

When I was in college, our women's basketball team's starting 2 guard was named "Felicia."

Both MacWrite II and Wordperfect 3.5 (for Mac) suggested ... well, come on, like you don't know exactly what sex act it suggested. Don't even try to pretend your mind didn't go straight to the gutter (and I don't mean you, Gutter! ).

One day when I was the only person in the office, I went through and made sure the correct spelling was added to every user dictionary we had.

 

A former supervisor's last name turned into "patronize." Smart spellcheck! ;D

 

This one got into print: Lamar Odom to Lamar Doom.
This one didn't: Angels pitcher Chris Bootcheck to Buttocks

 

Back at my old shop, we had a stringer named Chris who hit the wrong button on spellcheck.

In an instant, his byline was changed to "Christ Johnson" (last name changed to protect the guilty, though I have no idea where he is these days).
