I've always called this a G clamp in the UK, do Americans all say C clamp? Or is there a subtle difference in the shape?

A Google search seems to indicate that the names C and G are interchangeable.

That said, I've never heard of them being called G clamps until you made me look it up.

Now I'm stuck with that info floating around in my head forever. I hate you.
