It's driving me nuts that there is probably no way to know how to REALLY spell Mechanikles' name. I've seen so many variations that I've lost count. I've also seen the same people use one spelling in one thread, and then another somewhere else. So, I put this up to know what is the most popular spelling.

Also, is there a reason you favour some spelling over another?

I prefer Mechanikles. It just sounds good to me. I think I saw Mekanikles in some Aladdin-related game on Disney's site, but I don't feel like changing the spelling at this point -- unless it really becomes official.

By the wya, how doy ou pronounce his name? Is it like the word "Mechanic" or is it like Mekkan-nickels? Embarassed

It may vary in different countries. Over here we pronounce it "Me-ka-nik-les", so it took a while before I got used to the English "Mecha-nik-lees".

It depends on my mood or if someone spelled it a certain way before me, but I go with Mechanicles or Mechanikles. I kinda prefer the one with the 'k' just cause it gives it some more distinction from mechanical in my head

I usually spell that neat freak's name as "Mechanicles" or "Mechanikles"
