2 examples that I could think of were:

In Line skates= always called rollerblades
Tissue= Kleenex

What are some other ones?

Should have said everyday items. Includes work or play as well.

Q-Tip
Coke - Not always referred to as a coke, but often times if you want a cola people will ask for a coke unless they are VERY specific.



Now you can see why I never wanted to leave that island

Hey, will the world turn upon me
Will the soul survive ultimately
Oh, will peace ever be found
When I drag my feet on hallowed ground

I don't wanna know
what the future will hold
I don't wanna pray
cause I'm lost anyway

Fellow authors: these can get tricky if you are getting published. Somewhere on the web was a list of these brands and their generic counterparts, but I lost in in the great crash of 2001.
