There's an old MTG story of how an artist was given a job of drawing up a spooky spirit. The spirit was described using the name they planned to attach to the card rather than the word spirit. The artist did not recognize the word, so assumed it was a typo of a similar word, and drew the image.

Reminds me of a story I read from a tabletop game developer that told their artist that they wanted an evil wizard who used brambles as a weapon. They meant vines. The artist who was not a native English speaker, looked up brambles: raspberries. So evil raspberry wizard. Apparently they kept it.
