Or when I can’t remember one of themHere in the US, coriander is the seed and cilantro is the leaf of the same plant. I’ve never seen the one referred to as the other, except by mistake.

I have occasionally heard or read "coriander greens". I love coriander and detest cilantro.We call the seed and the leaf coriander. I use both......lots.
I dry roast the seed and grind it to add to my curries.

Yeah, to be honest, small amounts of cooked cilantro are fine.+1
I put whole coriander in my Corning/picking spice blend. Couldn’t find whole once so I left it out and my corned beef tasted flat. So I hunted down whole coriander and added it to the blend and all was right again.
I never buy cilantro because it tastes nasty to all of us but DD#2. She loves it.
We don’t mind it in prepared salsa, guacamole etc. at a restaurant so long as they go easy on it.
DD# 2 would buy Thai food and I only ate the salad with peanut dressing (it was so good). There was always a couple sprigs of cilantro in there. I would eat them every time hoping it would grow on me. But alas ... nope.
Same thing here! Coriander seeds are bright and lemony. Well, I suppose cilantro could be called "lemony", too, since they do make lemon-scented dish soap....I love coriander and detest cilantro.
