I was confused as all get-out about what a "wire nut" is, turns out Marettes are not what everyone calls 'em!

  without looking it up, sounds like you are referring the brand name or the manufacture/distributor of wire nuts available at your local hardware store.

    It's actually based on the name of the inventor, a Canadian, and is commonly used in Canada as a generic name.
