Wordpress Saying, "The slug “randomname” is already in use by another term?

[contract]

But there's only 5 categories and none of them are using that slug? Anyway to fix this... The current one is spelled wrong by one letter.. And when I go to that slug's url, it's 404 not found either..

Looked around but don't see what I missed.

server -> phpmyadmin -> remove slug/permalink from db

Is one sitting in the trash or a draft like that? Even a post-name.

Hmm not sure.. Going through the posts now to see.. Emptied the drafts/trash as well.

Fixed..

It was a TAG.. No idea how that works, but removed it and now it's working fine..
