On Page 1 (among a lot of other oddities and trivia):

"
Gloria Donen Sosin says she has found 16 spellings for *HANUKKAH* (in
alphabetical order): Channuka, Channukah, Chanuka, Chanukah, Chanuko,
Hannuka, Hannukah, Hanuka, Hanukah, Hanukkah, Kanukkah, Khannuka,
Khannukah, Khanuka, Khanukah, and Khanukkah. (Her list may include
transliterations from Hebrew to English.) James A. Landau has found
Chanuccah in an 1872 prayer book.
