this is a common mistake which everyone does. what you say is absolutely correct. there is no reason why people call it a lead pencil.
perhaps it is because of the same colour

hey frnds..
A large amount of pure, concrete graphite was discovered in Bornode, England in the 16th century.
This record was the first time in history that high quality, concrete graphite was found. When metallurgists encountered this substance for the first time, they thought tha
t it was some type of black rather than one type of carbon.
Thus, he called it "Plombago", which is derived from "Playambam", which is Latin for "lead".
so its calledes lead pencil
thank you
