Below are two different maps to show how it varies by regions of the United States. And if you don't live in the United States, what do you call it and does it change regionally in your country?

| Do you agree with the above map? It show Jacksonville as calling it soda and that wasn't what I found to be true, and it has our part of FL calling it Coke. The bottom map is much more detailed, but not sure if it's accurate. What do you think? |

Learned to call is pop but grew up calling it soda, and I am nowhere on your map!
It's "soda" here (Las Vegas Nevada). The map is probably accurate for Clark County (the southern-most part of Nevada) at 50%-80%. Enough of the population comes here from other areas that it's probably correct to not be at 80%-100%.
In australia we say cool drink. Or just say what the can is ie coke,pepsi
Thank you for sharing that.
In WNY we call it Pop
In Germany we use the English word "soft drink" for it
Interesting to see the differences!
I think in England they called it Fizzy drinks when we were there, but we called it by name --Lilt, coke ...
