A friend of mine and I somehow wound up talking about products that are called by their "not technically true" names. We came up with:
Any tissues: Kleenex
Any cotton swabs: Q-Tips
Any clear tape: Scotch tape
Any plastic wrap: Saran Wrap
Any window cleaner: Windex
Any adhesive bandages: Band-aids
Any petroleum jelly: Vaseline

That's a good list. I know I call all strong utility tape Duck tape whether it's the actual brand or a knock off.
Any copy is a Xerox.
