Thread Name: Frequently misspelled/confused names.
Subject: RE: Frequently misspelled/confused names.
Another possibility:

In posting a song for the DT, check if the title/key phrase which someone might be expected to search for is spelling-sensitive. Maybe what you're posting is a phonetic version of the ordinary English, or maybe vice-versa. Maybe a song is called (fictional) Singin' Sword.

If you find that kind of trap built in, somewhere in your post say something like "Singin' Sword is sometimes spelled Singing Sword," so that you're using any likely variant a searcher might look for.
