No not the people; it was Don Buchla who literally labeled it a "Comb Filter".  I'm pretty sure he meant it generically.

Just like "FM Synthesis" is really phase modulation, but the term is used generically.

And Leo Fender famously swapped "Tremolo" and "Vibrato".

This field has rich history of goofing up the terminology.
