The many spellings of Gadhafi

I suppose now is as good a time as any to dig up my chart showing how the spellings of “Gadhafi” have changed in popularity over the years.

Chart of spellings of Gadhafi over time

The data only goes up through January or February 2011; I have no idea, nor any interest in determining, how things have changed over the past several months.

This isn’t the best infographic in the world; the colors have little relationship to the data, and are hard to distinguish, and it could probably use a bit of context (e.g. when was the Lockerbie bombing?). But it’ll do for now.
