In MA, it is commonly called "tonic". Unique to this area, I think, just
like a "frappe" which is *not* the same as a milkshake.

Interesting thread. I always thought it was a "Canada vs US" thing: "pop"
in Canada, "soda" in the US.

My Lady refers to all drinks as a "beverage" which eliminates all
confusion...

For whatever reason, it is a *very* localized regional thing.
Generally (although it can vary even from one city to the next) "Pop" in
the north, "Soda" in the southwest, midwest, and northeast, and "Coke"
in the south.

Personally, I say either coke (for any cola) or pop (for almost all
carbonated drinks including cola).

Western West Virginia is pretty much the same as above {coke (for any
cola) or pop (for almost all
carbonated drinks including cola).}
