burnsides
Side facial hair
Burnsides are a style of facial hair with full whiskers on the cheeks connected to a mustache, but with the chin clean-shaven—the inverse of a goatee.
Named for American Civil War general Ambrose Burnside, who wore them prominently.
The rearranged form *sideburns* has become the more common term.
