Also less commonly as 浑沌 (about 100 hits vs 40,000 for 混沌)

〔混(hùn )沌〕见“混”。

zdic also says "used in 沌沌" but I don't see much usage of that, other than 混混沌沌 or 浑浑沌沌
-------------------------

Editor: In Taiwan, the usage ratio of 渾沌 to 混沌 is much higher than 1 in 400.
E.g. Google (verbatim option)
"渾沌" site:.taiwan-panorama.com (39 results)
"混沌" site:.taiwan-panorama.com (250 results)
