Is Cheerios a proper noun or common noun?

Best Answers

If you are referring to the specific cereal product, “Cheerios” is a proper noun. Since you capitalized the word in your question, I assume that is what you want to know. There is probably a trend to genericize the word to apply to any cereal as “xeroxing” a piece of paper is a genericized word although technically it should be a capitalized proper noun with a TM beside it. read more
