I was going to say that too, but "horn" is not a trademark name,
but rather a generic term being applied to a group of other less
generic terms. Actually, I've never heard the word "horn" applied
to a flute, but who knows. If you want to get into simply citing
slang terms, one would be remiss to leave out "ax", in reference
to pretty much any instrument in existence.
