My mom and dad were from Minnesota, and they called it "pop" too. I grew up calling it "pop" as well, even though I lived here, and other kids said "soda."

Having traveled the country a bit, I have heard the following terminology for flavored carbonated non-alcoholic beverages:

Soda
Pop
Tonic
Sody
Fizzie water
Coke
Soda pop
Seltzer

I probably left out somebody's word for it. Any more?
