Brand names

Brand names, what is a brand name?

If i showed you a pen like you would say its a biro, well actually its not, its a "ball point pen",  "Biro" is the short version of Ladislao José Biro who with the help of his brother invented the ball point pen

Many brand names are often used in place of the correct name,  a few examples are

"Hoover" which should be Vacuum cleaner

Tip-ex which should be  Correction fluid

Have you got an example?, send it in.
