                                                  Assuming the answer's what I think, isn't there one 'z' too many in there?

                                                    Both spellings are used, I think, what with its being a transliteration. The single 'z' is more commonplace, but wouldn't work... The double 'z' comes up on google all right, and I've certainly seen it in the context where the word is seen.
