Soda comes from soda water, which is an old term for carbonated water. Pop refers to the bubbles. However, the words people use vary a lot from one region to another: soda, soda pop, pop, Coke (in some areas every kind of soda pop is called Coke), etc.
The word "soda" comes from sodium compounds (such as sodium bicarbonate) sometimes added to fizzy water to counteract the acidity from the carbonation.
I used to call it soda only, because that is what everyone calls it in California. I've lived in Idaho for over 8 years now, and I call it pop now sometimes, because that is what is is called around here. It also depends on who I'm around. I call it soda around my family and pop around my husbands.
The full name is soda pop, in Ontario we shorten it to pop.
By soda, we mean carbonated water, which is a mixer for alcohol.
