I grew up a 'Coke" and married into a pop.

Growing up in the upper midwest it was always "pop", never heard of "soda" until I moved to eastern PA. I thought the term "pop" was limited to the upper midwest, didn't know the term had made its way to western parts of PA & NY. The things I learn on Sawmill Creek
When I was growing up it was mostly "soda" but some relatives used the term "Soda-pop".

Another southern Ohio boy here. It was always pop but sometimes coke was used instead of pop.
To this day the best drink I ever had was when the family was traveling from Ohio to Warner Robbins GA during WWII. We stopped for gas and got a real Coke, in the bottle from one of those 5 cent machines that stored the Cokes on hangers in a tub of ice. For a boy of 6 that was heaven.

Here it was either Pepsi, Coke, or soft drink.
I live in the United kingdom and the word I use is pop
This article is about the British soft drink. For the Mexican beer, see Corona (beer).
Corona was a brand of carbonated soft drink produced by Thomas & Evans Ltd in South Wales, and distributed across the United Kingdom. The firm was created by grocers William Thomas and William Evans when they saw a market for soft drinks caused by the growing influence of the temperance movement.
