Usually bag, but occasionally purse or pocketbook. Pocketbook sounds super strange to me the more I say it know though lol

Re: What do you call it?

Bag seems most natural to say for me, followed by purse, then handbag... I don't know if I've ever called it a pocketbook.

Purse.

When I moved from California to NY when I was 11, I couldn't for the life of me comprehend the term "Pocketbook" it wasn't a book, nor did it fit in your pocket. I was so confused. Chat Icon

Bag. Everything is a bag to me. Tote, backpack, pretty purse, clutch, old Pathmark plastic...it's all just a sack to keep my shit in it.

I grew up calling it a pocketbook or bag, but when I was living in the midwest all my girlfriends would laugh/tease, so out of habit I started calling it a purse.

Pocketbook and sometimes purse. I hate the word purse though. It's weird. I just don't like the way the word sounds.
