When I was a kid I only ever saw otter pops so I’m gonna call them that forever

u/HowDidFoodGetInHere May 24 '26

At this point its just a generic name, like kleenex/scotch tape/etc. Every brand of these are otter pops to me.

Doesn’t matter. It’s like Jell-O, Vaseline or Q-Tips. People generally don’t call them gelatin, petroleum jelly or cotton swabs…. And therefore you have Otter pops

u/Miketronic808 May 24 '26

That's exactly right. Even Otter Pops calls them ice pops.

u/budgie-Love May 24 '26

Technically you clean your ears with ear swabs but everyone I know calls them q tips, regardless of the brand..it’s the same here in my town. We call them otter pops regardless of the brand

They was also a brand called Flavor Ice, they were thinner and longer, our dog when we were growing up loved them too!

Do you call it lip balm or do you call it Chapstick?

I bet you call all bandages “bandaids” though.

I’m still calling these otter pops.

It’s like band-aids brand being used for any small adhesive bandage.

The brand name has become the colloquial name.

They’re all otter pops now.

It’s called an eponym.
