"Gandam" was how the Japanese romanised the franchise based on how the Katakana is writen in English letterings (GA-N-DA-MU) prior to officially rewriten as "Gundam".
That's incorrect. Take a look at Gundam's very first opening. 'Gundam' was never really supposed to be 'Gandam', the name from that Newtype article was a misspelling.
