Bongolata
Bong-GO-lah-tah
also bongolataed
v.
(of a name or word) to read so quickly an unfamiliar word in an attempt to say it fluently, that an incorrect mispronunciation and soon after, an incorrect spelling is formed

 

The Overwatch community bongolataed Overwatch's 24th hero, Orisa, forming the common misspelling Orsia.

 

Etymology:
My cousin, Lolek Bongalonta.
I never knew my cousin's last name, just knew him as Lolek. I was interested in finding his last name one time, and searched on Facebook. I saw the name for a good half a second and went on with my life. For 2 whole years, I thought his name was Bongolata, until the truth destroyed me.
