Yesterday, I needed to be reminded that "eavestrough" is a word and what it's used for.

Actually, they are gutters. That's the generic term for the job they are used for. "Trough" is another generic. Water trough/gutter installed on an eave. I've installed a bunch of them. What they're called varies on which area of the country you're in. One of the fun things of dialect. (A hobby of mine.)
