alias not working in terminal I'm on a mac in Terminal.

open -a "Sublime Text 2"


opens Sublmine Text 2, just like I want it to.

I now want to alias this to my .bashrc file, which I have an use for other things like prompt configuration. 

alias sublime='open -a Submlime Text 2'


doesn't work. Neither does

alias sublime='open -a "Submlime Text 2"'


running 

source ./.bashrc


doesn't help.
Each time I am told

/Volumes/Belladonna/Blake
≈:≈ sublime 
Unable to find application named 'Submlime Text 2'


I'm doing this wrong and I know it must be a simple answer...
Either of these should work:

alias sublime='open -a "Sublime Text 2"'
alias sublime='open -a Sublime\ Text\ 2'
