Yes, I am here and would recommend that you use both terrms.

Receptacle.

A receptacle is a contact device installed at the outlet for the connection of an attachment plug.

A single receptacle is a single contact device with no other contact device on the same yoke.

A multiple receptacle is two or more contact devices on the same yoke.

Receptacle Outlet.

An outlet where one or more receptacles are installed.

I apologize, and fixed my posts above sorry I did not want to cause any stir.

I recommend an upgrade to bedroom AFCI's, as the 08 nec is not adopted here yet, that is as far as I go.
