I just had a look at the entry for neighbour in the online OED, and if ever there were an advertisement for the ability to selectively hide sections of entries, this is it. I conservatively estimate that the Forms section holds at least two hundred pre-modern variant spellings, running the gamut from neyȝtheboure to nybur and stopping in-between at places you wouldn't have imagined. If I'm bored at work later (what do I mean "if"?) I may go back and pick my favourite.
