The Flintstones spelling

Many people remember The Flintstones as being spelled “The Flinstones,” without the first “t.” In reality, the name has always been “Flintstones,” referencing flint stone from the prehistoric theme. Because the middle “t” is easy to gloss over when reading or saying the name quickly, it became a very common spelling-based Mandela Effect.
