Chesterfield was new to me. My grandmother called it a Davenport. I call it a couch.
Speaking of names. I grew up with Coke/Pepsi/etc., and it was called pop. Soda was always meant to be soda water. The first time I heard someone say, "Do you want a soda?” and handed me a Dr. Pepper, I was taken aback.
All these regional things.
(yes, I'm trying to keep my mind off the news…)

@Cliff538 ooh davenport is old timey. Chesterfield is what I use. Pop for me, kids are hard into soda. Sounds American to my ears.
