Come to TRUITION (fruition)

The phrase “come to fruition” means to come to realization (as in bearing fruit).

I initially tracked down the eggcorn “come to THROUGHITION”—-meaning to transpire ” through” (to an end). However, it’s awkward spelling would suggest that it’s probably less common in written than in verbal form. (See the last four examples for this eggcorn).

After a little more searching, I also came up with the eggcorn “come to TRUITION” meaning to reach (and prove “true”) the anticipated outcome. I still only came up with four hits.
