How Do You Spell HUCKABAY?

Pronunciation: [hˈʌkɐbˌe͡ɪ] (IPA)

The spelling of the word "Huckabay" is not immediately apparent from its pronunciation. It is pronounced as /hʌkəˈbeɪ/ in the IPA phonetic transcription. The "H" at the beginning is clearly pronounced, but the "cka" sound is spelled with a "k" instead of a "c". The "a" and "b" sounds are straightforward. However, the "ay" sound is spelled with two letters instead of one, which may be a result of an anglicized version of the original name.
