Welcome to Ubuntu 18.04: Make yourself at GNOME. Cup of data-slurping dispute, anyone?

Wasn't talking about the good linx distro side. I was just referring to the household name bit.

You say kleenex, everyone knows it's a tissue, you say hoover, everyone knows its a vacuum cleaner.

You say android, it's a phone to most, unaware as many are that it runs on the linux kernel.

Linux may be all around, but like a popular brand of sewer plumbing it doesn't get much upfront advertising, it's not a popular enough household product to have a household name.
