Pigeons and doves both belong to the Columbidae Family, but I believe they can be used interchangeably. I prefer the word dove though (word play lol:).
Good point! It’s just what I got used to. There are coming to our backyard to feed both of them, that’s why I call them doves and pigeons. Actually I just took a picture of them.

They are doves..
White is pigeon and the small on the right is dove.
The actual name for a pigeon is rock dove. ;)
