Why do some people use "bumber" and others use "bumper"?

Question:
I have seen this a number of times on Answers, so it can't just be a spelling error. Is 'bumber" a European name for a "bumper"?

What does it mean when your car wobbles?


I.e., a bumper is used by cars to absorb bumps, not bumbs. Can anyone shed some light here?

Some people are just dumper than others.

I need help?

It's just a misinterpretation of "bumper".

Left blinker is slower than right, and it's light doesnt show in the dash?


The same thing happens with "laptop" - I constantly hear/see people using the term "labtop".
