How quaint. In The US, even people who've never been near the "drug scene" would be likely to call someone a "pothead". Would the same innocents in the UK refer to them as "cannabis addicts"?
Regardless... it seems entirely unlikely to me to that the whole of the UK would agree with your premise that what people choose to call cannabis in every day conversation has any relationship whatsoever to their familiarity with its usage.
