It's not just squirrels who collect egg corns
An egg corn is a non-standard reshaping of an existing word that, in its new spelling, intuitively makes sense to many users unaware of their error:
Erroneous as it may be, the substitution involved more than just ignorance: an acorn is more or less shaped like an egg; and it is a seed, just like grains of corn. So if you don’t know how _acorn_ is spelled, _egg corn_ actually makes sense.
Incredibly, there is a linguistic category for phrases such as "for all intensive purposes" - and an entire linguistic database of them.
