Going slightly off-thread, in our family we used to call them (ie press-studs, poppers) SNAPS. Did anyone else do this? We were a London family although my mum had been transplanted from Yorkshire. Perhaps SNAPS was a Northern term? I know all my London friends called them press-studs.

We called them snaps when I lived in Norfolk as a child.
