The spelling of the word "Dwane" may seem unusual at first glance, but it actually follows regular English spelling rules. The "d" and "w" make the "dw" sound, while the "a" makes a short "a" sound, and the "ne" at the end is pronounced as "n." In IPA phonetic transcription, it would be written as /dwɑn/. While the name Dwane may not be as common as other spellings, it is still a valid and acceptable way to spell the name.
