Calling it soda/pop/coke is mostly a regional difference in the US. Most of the east and west coasts call it soda while most of the midwest calls it pop, and most of the south calls it coke.


We call it pop too in the UK or at least in my city. I understand the soda thing but calling all pop/soda "coke" is a strange one too me when that is just one type of pop/soda.


"Coke" as a generic term is definitely a thing. I remember hearing it frequently when I was a kid in the 80s, but not so frequently anymore. I do have some hillbilly relatives who use "coke" as a generic term for all soft drinks.

Its still around. And not that rare in some areas... I think its weird to have people ask for an orange coke. Or for someone to say they want a coke, and have someone ask them what kind...
