Question

(i bet there will be plenty of mocking here!)

Answer 1

All i know was the tune for Sprite [ Sprite, sprite, tingeling, tingeling sprite, Brisk and breezy , frisk and freezy , taste the tingeling, sparkle of Sprite. I like Sprite. Maybe someone saw a wee little sprite playing in a waterfall with the water gleaming and came up with that name.:)

Answer 2

SPRITE came from Germany and was first called Fanta Klare Zitrone ("Clear Lemon Fanta"). The trademark was later reconceptualized as Sprite. This was Coke's response to the popularity of 7 Up, which had begun as "Lithiated Lemon" in 1929.

Sprite, as a lemon-lime soda, is referred to by consumers around the world in a variety of ways. It is called lemonade in Australia and New Zealand. In South Africa, Sprite and Schweppes Lemonade are almost interchangeable. In some parts of Switzerland, Sprite (or any other type of lemonade) is also known simply as "citro".

Answer 3

A 'sprite' is a supernatural creature who lives in gardens and forests etc.

It has lots of energy and gets up to lots of mischief.

I would assume (especially since somebody mentioned seeing a 'goblin' in their ads) that it is named after a fairy like creature called a sprite!

Wouldn't you agree?
