6-letter words with G as the 3rd letter and E as the 6th letter

The ending is fixed, so the variety sits earlier in the word, where 20 matches close -GLE (giggle, juggle, toggle, waggle) and 25 in total end -LE. First letters spread thin: R opens 10, L nine, B eight and D seven. Eleven matches rank among everyday words.

The G-3rd, E-6th pattern in brief

• 94 spellings fit ??G??E, and every one ends in E.
• 20 close -GLE, from gaggle and giggle to toggle and juggle.
• 25 matches end -LE overall; only two end -GE and two -UE.
• ZYGOTE and ZYGOSE top the list at 19 points apiece.
• Scores run from a floor of 7 to that 19-point ceiling.
• No opener dominates: R starts 10, L nine, B eight.

6-letter words with G as the 3rd letter and E as the 6th letter

The -GLE words are the spine of this list. Twenty matches run through that ending, and most double a consonant in the middle: gaggle, giggle, goggle, jiggle, juggle, toggle, waggle. The doubled letter is often the only thing that changes.

Those 20 sit inside a wider -LE group of 25, so a final L and E point straight at the middle of the alphabet. Only two matches end -GE and two -UE, and the remaining 65 close on other letters.

Which spellings score best?

Nine matches hold a J, Q, X or Z, and they own the top of the chart. ZYGOTE and ZYGOSE tie at 19, BEGAZE and UPGAZE reach 18, and JUGGLE, JIGGLE and JOGGLE all score 15.

JUGATE and OXGATE follow on 14, then UNGYVE on 13. The other 85 matches sit far below them, so this is a top-heavy list.

Will some games reject these spellings?

Every match ends in E, so the crossing clues do the heavy lifting. Nineteen of the 94 are Collins-only, which means a spelling such as COGGLE may be refused elsewhere; the 6-letter words with G as the 3rd letter and E as the 6th letter do not all share one list, so confirm your game's word list first.
