    I call it "soda pop." I don't know why, I grew up between Virginia and New jersey and from what i can remember everyone has always just called it soda where I've lived...I just like adding the word pop, i guess. =]

    First term back in 1700s was ´soda water´.. so the most accurate one would be soda, dont even know where the term ´pop´ came from.
    Again, for me a pop its a popsycle, not a drink.

    NC here & we call it soda. I do have family in NY, Baltimore, and Jersey area and they all say pop or soda pop. I guess that it all depends on where you are from?! *shrugs shoulder*

    everyone in my region has always called it "pop." i've always referred to it as soda. i'm not sure why that sounds more correct to me.

    Pop in the Midwest. Soda on the West Coast. Bad whatever you call it everywhere.

    might be soda in California, it's pop in Oregon and Washington....l prefer mine flat & caffeine free. ( on the one or two occasions during the year I drink a pop, that is.)

    It was pop on the west coast where I grew up, and is still pop in Saskatchewan. But I know that I've gotten funny looks in a number of the southern states when I've asked for pop, rather than soda.

    It was always POP in Eastern Canada as well... I think it's just some states that call it Soda
