Proposed changes

We have been using initialise across the code base. initialise and initialize are both English terms. Initialize is predominantly used in 🇺🇸 American (US) English ( en-US ) while initialise is predominantly used in 🇬🇧 British English (used in UK/AU/NZ) ( en-GB ). In the United States, there is a preference for "initialize" over "initialise" (99 to 1).
