Both names are in use.
From The Jargon File (http://www.catb.org/jargon/html/H/Hanlons-Razor.html http://www.catb.org/jargon/html/H/Hanlons-Razor.html):
At http://www.statusq.org/2001/11/26.html http://www.statusq.org/2001/11/26.html it is claimed that Hanlon's Razor was coined by one Robert J. Hanlon of Scranton, PA. However, a curiously similar remark (“You have attributed conditions to villainy that simply result from stupidity.”) appears in Logic of Empire, a classic 1941 SF story by Robert A. Heinlein […].
- SahAssar 8y agoRight, but since most knowledge bases (including Jargon File, Wikipedia and others) use "Hanlon" as the main title, it seems easier and more understandable to go with that. I should have included that in my comment though.
