Is it "Thelonious" or "Thelmoious"? (hear-me.social)

Is it "Thelonious" or "Thelmoious"?

I can't find any good articles discussing the reasons for the differences in the spelling of Monk's first name/stage name. His wiki page says his birth name is "Thelious Monk Jr."

Surely someone has written about this, right?

EDIT: I forgot I was using a Firefox extension that swaps “Elon” to “Elmo” and I guess it was doing it within words too. LOL

@gedaliyah OMG. I figured it out.

I was using a Firefox extension that was changing “Elon” to “Elmo”… I didn’t put a space before and after “Elon” in the prompt, so it was changing it everywhere. Even within words.

One of the funniest/most embarrassing things I've done all year... so far.
