en rare en Habakkuk.
en 1910 Francis E. Gigot Habacuc The Catholic Encyclopedia 7 98 The fact that in his book he is twice called "the prophet" (i, 1; iii, 1) leads indeed one to surmise that Habacuc held a recognized position as prophet, but it manifestly affords no distinct knowledge of his person.
Usage notes
The spelling Habacuc is the one used in the Douay–Rheims Bible, an official translation of the Roman Catholic Vulgate into English that was completed in 1610. Most other English translations use the spelling en Habakkuk. Consequently, the spelling Habacuc is largely restricted to Roman Catholic writings.
