Definitely a regional thing, most people in the south call it Coke, then you have to elaborate on what kind of "Coke" (soda) afterwards.

I call it soda, but I am a rarity to not call it "pop" in Minnesota.

I call it soda. DUnno if I speak for all of Virginia though.

I guess the further south you go, it becomes Coke. Probably with the closer you get to Atlanta.

pop, but i still say soda often too. Honestly though that has more to do with me simply not giving a shit about carbonated beverages than anything.

I also try to actively switch up my word choice, so i'll call it both daily.

Most people 'round here say pop though.

Unless someone specifically refers to a Dew or Barq's or something, they just say, "Coke," around here.
