Come on guys. It's like "break" vs "brake" or "weather" vs "whether". 
I myself am not a grammar expert, but this one should be apparently obvious. It seems like every other day I'm seeing people spell it, "axel".
An axel is a figure-skating jump named after the Norwegian skater Axel Paulsen (1855-1938). It does not need to be capitalized. An axle is a rounded shaft or rod that connects two wheels. Coincidentally, this word’s origins are also Norwegian; it comes from the Old Norse öxull.
I'm literally going to have to start writing programs to fix commonly misspelled words on this forum, huh?
