Given that both Whiffle and Wiffle are mentioned in this thread, I guess they have the mis-spelling issue sewn up too.
But just FYI, Whifflers were a (fictional) brand of cigarettes in Dorothy L Sayers' Murder Must Advertise in which Lord Peter Wimsey joins a copywriting firm. His most successful campaign involves the slogan, "If that's what you want you can Whiffle for it" which involves people smoking great quantities of cigarettes in order to collect vouchers. So not a very healthy association really.
