The Merriam-Webster Meme

The Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary suggests these words instead of "Maroney":


  1. Morena
  2. marina
  3. Marina
  4. Mariana
  5. Marianao
  6. menorah
  7. Merano
  8. Marrano
  9. Maroni
  10. Moreno


Strangely, the word usually suggested by the Microsoft spellchecker, "marooned", is not there.
