Doppleganger vs Doppelganger

Fragment of a discussion from Talk:Doppelganger

Before you go screaming at Nexon's "notorious typos", consider that more people use "doppleganger" than "doppelganger". Including some dictionaries.

Technically, it's spelled "doppelganger", at least according to merriam-webster.

Because of the way things are, just go with "doppleganger" and leave a redirect for the other page.

It's a word of German roots, and doppel means double in German whereas dopple is a typo (or at least an Anglicization of doppel). Unless of course the spelling was different to differentiate between skill/monster.

It's like Gray and Grey, Nexon has that usage spread all over the place when it "should" (according to region) be Gray (to be consistent)
