Frigidaire was a brand name which was shortend to "Fridge" and used generically for all brands.

"Icebox" is also used, but "fridge" is more common. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, "fridge" is a shortened form of "refrigerator," although the brand-name Frigidaire may have contributed to it's continued popularity.
