you are not going to get a 'standard' answer because its called different things in different parts of the U.S. & other countries like England & Canada use Yahoo Answers too.  so There will be different answers from them as well.

In my family we called it "licks".  The parents gave a B-day spanking but siblings & friends gave "licks".

Just like in Georgia its a Chile cheese dog & in Indiana its a 'Coney'.Different word same thing.
