Q-tips is one of those products refer to by their brand name, instead of the generic descriptor. I usually see them referred to as "cotton swabs" in California. Some other examples of products we call by their brand name are "Kleenex" for tissue paper and "Band-aid" for self-adhesive bandages.

Yea, I've always called them Q-tips because of the brand name. Actually, I've never thought about what the generic name might be. Isn't it a commercialized world we live in

In the US we call them Q-tips as well because of a brand name.

I've never heard someone calling them Q-tips. The literal translation of the word I've always used would be "cotton sticks", but apparently there are people in Germany who also call them Q-tips (probably in Western Germany).
The German Wikipedia says that they were invented by Leo Gerstenzang, and that the Q stands for "quality".
