The rest of us all call it Firewire, including everyone in this thread.
What is your point?
My recollection is that Apple owns the trademark on "Firewire", so
other manufacturers have to call it IEEE-1394. Of course, it's easier
to remember "Firewire" than it is to remember IEEE-1394, so all us
humans call it "Firewire". Apparently, some manufacturers decided to
come up with their own (vendor-specific) names, according to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firewire

Firewire is still called other things by the other companies who helped
develop it.
