A Brand Name Takeover occurs whenever a UsefulNotes/{{trademark}} or brand name has become the colloquial or generic description for a specific type of product, rather than just the specific product created by the original trademark holder. This typically happens when the product in question has become so dominant in the market that the brand is the first thing people think about when they think of the ''type'' of product the brand represents. Additionally, if you look at the lists below, it is most common in instances where the trademarked product is the first of its kind - thus (especially if it was also patented thus meaning the new product was the ''only'' one of its kind) it often was the only name the public knew for this new widget. Famous examples include the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermos Thermos,]] the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escalator Escalator,]] the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breathalyzer Breathalyzer,]] and [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shredded_wheat Shredded Wheat.]]

* Supermi, the first local instant noodle in Indonesia, was used to refer to any instant noodle by older Indonesians, though the younger generation is more likely to use the descriptive "mie instan" (literally instant noodle) due to their familiarity with English, the current dominating brand Indomie, or just "mie" (noodle) since it's usually clear from the context whether the speaker/writer meant the non-instant noodle or instant noodle.
