England - Gewgaw
Germany - Maultrommel (which means mouth drum)
Japan - Koukin
Russia - Vargan
Siberia - Khomus
Philippines - Kumbing and kubing
Italy - Scacciapensieri
Norway - munnharpa or munnharpe
France - guimbarde
Bali - genggong

I really remember being little and wanting one of those things, so my Mom took me to Ostanek's in St. Catharines (the accordion/guitar shop run by three-time Polka category grammy winner Walter Ostanek). Mom was pretty sure that it was called a Jew's Harp too.

Mom: Do you have Jew's Harps?

Clerk: Oh no. I can't sell you one of those.

(pause as he slides open the drawer in front of him)

Clerk: But I can sell you a Snoopy harp!

Yeah, computer and singing saw are tied for first in my book!  Add some Bjork vocals and you've got yourself some avant garde music.
