Is there something written under this smudge?

Not sure where to put this, but I'll start with the handwriting/smudge first!

This is from nonconformist records for Wolverhampton (Darlington Street chapel) relating to the Smith family of Coven in Staffordshire.
They were Methodists, and the Smith family gave land and money for the Methodist Chapel in Coven. They were farmer> locksmiths>engineers over the years so quite wealthy.

I have three generations of these John Smiths fairly well documented and various family baptised at Darlington Street, but I can't fit this John/Joanna/Mary baptism in yet.

Am curious if there is something written under the smudge. Would that be a middle name or something else?

Further down the same page is what appears to be the same record, this time under the surname Farmer with parents John Smith and Johanna in the same box- is this a transcription error with each box shifted one column?

Don't want to confuse with too much detail,  one of the John Smiths of Coven (Farmer) died in Mar 1836, so it is possible that if it had anything to do with this John, that he was deceased at the time of this baptism.

Would appreciate your thoughts.

i think its a smudgy "Smith" surname

I also see Smith which has a strike out line through it - probably because it was written in the wrong column.

Agree with the above plus it looks like a 'smudge' through the damp ink or with a dampened finger to make the incorrect entry more obvious than the single strike through?
