Misnomer
Living in the PNW, we have a lot of fir trees. Millions upon millions I would guess. And fir trees have needles. People commonly call these "pine needles," which they clearly are not.
We also have pine trees so it isn't from lack of exposure to seeing the difference.
What sort of misnomer do you experience?
