Serious question, what is the correct spelling? Even after googling it I still can't figure it out.

In general, the E sound is “ie” the the I sound is “ei”.
True for most Germanic languages. Use the English pronunciation of the second letter.

Glad the inmates were able to help with the spelling so you could get the most from that Craigslist search, Grads... People helping people.
