It's funny, I am trying to think of what other name I would call a band aid by and I can't come up with one.

Aspirin. Europeans know that Aspirin is a trademark owned by Bayer. Bayer lost the tm in the US after WW1.
Most famous case of losing trademark as a result of generic use => escalator.
True to game, my personal favorite trademark no one knows is a trademark? Bubble Wrap.
