snowspeeder…

In fact they are only called “speeder” in the movie, not “snowspeeder”.

And in every other medium since, including the licensed toys brought out by Kenner whilst the film was still playing in cinemas around the world, and in Donald F. Glut’s official novelisation of the film published by Ballantine in 1980 and which is also advertised in the end credits of the film itself, the official Lucasfilm name for those particular ships has been ‘snowspeeders’. Therefore it is not incorrect to call them ‘snowspeeders’. I don’t see what’s so difficult for you to understand about that. I didn’t see you grumbling about everyone calling the ‘wampa’ the ‘wampa’, even though the creature is not named in the film itself and is only referred to as ‘Snow Creature’ in the film’s credits.
