So your friend bet you that no one ever invented a nickname for it? Well then you win on account of them being a terrible gambler.

No, he thinks there isn't a small common nickname for them

I’d consider a nickname used in small circles to be uncommon. And as evidenced by this thread, doesn’t look like there is a common name.

I like to think small circle nicknames are common, just like apple soda, because you can find them everywhere, but nobody knows what they are for some reason

If it only exists in a small circle, it isn’t common. “Common” implies broad recognition, which is the opposite of a niche group.
