Duellist?

[edit]

Trawling Google Books, I find that

1. There are more results returned for "duellist" than for "duelist".
2. In general, though by no means exclusively, the results for the single "l" are more recent and/or American rather than British.

Merriam-Webster online lists both spellings. It's an interesting contrast to "dualism". NickS 15:43, 13 July 2007 (UTC)Reply
