what is the correct spelling of whacky/wacky?

I dunno, I always spell it 'whacky'.

For me,
that way has more connotations of slapstick.

Yeah, wacky looks unfinished.

"Whacky" makes me think you go around "whacking" people,
like out of open windows with a plank of wood and stuff.

Both are acceptable.
"whack·y (hwk, wk)
adj. Slang
Variant of wacky."

I'd spell it wacky
but only because whacky makes me think of something being hit lots.
