Not many people seem to call it what I call it....which is Cola. I guess just the terms Coca-Cola, Pepsi-Cola, I got used to calling all Soda type drinks are known as Cola.
I sometimes refer to them as Soda Pop, Soda or sometimes Pop also. But usually Cola or by Brand. Like if I am at someones place and they offer me a drink, I may say "Do you have any Cola?". Although I don't really drink much cola anymore, I tend to stick to water.
I also call it Coke, but Coke refers to Coca-Cola and only that for me. Coke is my favorite cola, but I like pepsi and root beer also. That is pretty much the only cola's I like.
I have never liked the term "Soft Drink" because it feels so sugary and gassy, which to me is the opposite of soft. I know it is suppose to be the opposite of alchohol, I just never use the term Soft Drink.
I live in Canada, Toronto.

As a generic term, soda. Pop is something you do to a balloon.
Pop is how I sometimes feel if I drink too much Cola! haha
