    It’s only the US and Canada that use “aluminum” though isn’t it? The rest of the world and most languages have it as “-ium”.
    Humphrey Davey actually changed his mind and changed it to “-ium” shortly after discovering it.
    Also, IUPAC has “Aluminium” as the primary spelling, though both are acceptable.
