Pretty sure "germiphobia" should be the standard spelling, with "germaphobia" and "germophobia" as alternates. I've seen all three in usage, but given the root word and other germi- words like "germicide", it makes more sense as the standard. 135.0.167.113 19:43, 9 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Google Ngrams shows the -o- forms as the most common in books; the -i- forms have the fewest ghits. Keith the Koala (talk) 20:55, 15 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
