Antwaun - is it intentional, or could they just not spell?

__________________________________________________________

Is there even a correct way to spell that?

Reminds me of the name Catherine. There are 14 different ways to spell that.

I think Antoine is pretty much the normal expectation of spelling it ... I dunno, maybe it’s me ... he could have been named after a Toyota ... Tursell, maybe, I dunno.

Sure there is: Antoine.

From wiki:

Other spellings

Antawn Jamison. American basketball player
Antoin Sevruguin, photographer
Antowain Smith, American football player
Antuan Simmons, American football player
Antwaan Randle El, American football player
Antwone Fisher, American author, screenwriter and film producer

Aside from the likely Russian influence in the spelling of the second variant, I'd say that there's a definite pattern emerging.
