I alternate between that and "whipper snipper", which is what my family calls it.

There are other names people use, too.

I actually think the reverse is true, that weed whacker was a brand and string trimmer is the generic name.

I grew up with "Whipper Snipper," which I've heard almost nowhere else and I think must have been a brand name or something.

Weed whacker which is a misnomer since to effectively remove weeds you have to pull them out, roots and all. Bludgeoning them doesn't do much good.

I mean, not really, it's doing what it's name says, whacking the weeds.

Its not a misnomer. Its literally whacking the weeds... It would be a misnomer if it was called weed remover, though...

If you're using that as an edger, you're going to go through string like crazy.

Weed wacker or Weed eater. Both are interchangeable here.

String trimmer is also an acceptable answer.
