Even the most experienced authors can slip up.
I've just been re-reading an Agatha Christie which I haven't read for years, and I was struck by the names:
One character-Harold Beadle- changed his name to Badcock (I can't imagine any man voluntarily choosing Badcock). Another character's name was Allcock. Then there was Doctor Haydock and Chief-Inspector Craddock.
Ock, aye!
