it has a stronger brand, probably because it was created first. I still hear the term "docker container" (sometimes).

I've never interacted with anyone that knew them by another name. It's always (docker) container, where they may leave out the docker term, but if questioed what kind of container they mean theyll say it.

And the times I've called them OCI container (or image when talking about those) nobody knew what I meant until I clarified to docker

I hear occasionally Image Container, but even that is fundamentally docker flavored because when disambiguating for the term "image".

This comes up because we use both the Image and Package registries on Gitlab, so we sometimes have to absolutely specify, and the conversation lends to "The Docker Image one".
