It’s the way no less an authority than Webster’s Third International asserted that “uninterested“ was the equivalent of “disinterested“ - and that was in 1961. I disagree. Even if - and maybe especially if - you know exactly which one I meant. (Obviously I’m a prescriptivist.)

Searching for "aneurysm" gets about 1.8 million Google-hits, and "aneurism" gets 2,4 million Ghits, and you even have to insist on the search for -ism or it goes to -ysm by default. So it's used with that spelling, but I wouldn't call it "more popular." Not that any of it matters for our purposes, really.
