Most Japanese call refer to a stapler 'hotchkiss.'
In fact, when you do a Google image search on hotchkiss in katakana, images of staplers will be displayed.
(When you do a Google image search on hotchkiss in English, images of cars will be displayed.)
This is derived from that the name of staplers that was first imported from the US in 1903 is "Hotckiss No. 1" by E.H.Hotchkiss.
The company, E.H.Hotchkiss was founded by Eli Hubbell Hotchkiss.
He is a younger brother of Benjamin Berkeley Hotchkiss, who is known as an inventor of machine guns.
The structure of machine guns and stapler seem to be similar to each other.

ホッチキス
ほとんどの日本人は、ステープラーのことをホッチキスと呼びます。
実際、カタカナで「ホッチキス」と画像検索するとステープラーの写真が出てきます。
（英語で「hotchkiss」と画像検索すると車の写真が出てきます。）
これは、1903年にアメリカから初めて輸入したステープラーが、E.H.ホッチキス社の「Hotchkiss No.1」だったことに由来します。
E.H.ホッチキス社は、イーライ・B・ホッチキスが創業しました。
彼は機関銃の発明者ベンジャミン・B・ホッチキスの弟で、ステープラーの構造は機関銃とよく似ているようです。
