George,
Your sister is totally right, I’m Guatemalan and in some parts of Latin America we’ve never heard of “Guacamole”. In Guatemala we refer to it as “Guacamol” (see link) – I always find it strange when Americans call it Guacamole. I understand the word made its way to American vocabulary via Mexico but Guacamol isn’t wrong just like Guasacaca isn’t wrong either via Venezuela.
