Self-rising flour or self-raising?

Is it self-RISING flour, or is it self-RAISING flour? I use Gold Medal Self-Rising Flour for biscuits, but I've seen people here write "self-raising" so many times I had to go and check the spelling on the bag. It's definitely "-rising", with an "i". Is someone else somewhere in this country (I live in California) selling flour as "self-raising"?

Update:

Hey, I never thought of "self-raising" being a cultural disparity. Thanks for your answers and for clearing this up for me.

    I've never heard of self-RAISING, only self-rising. To me, the dough rises. It doesn't raise.

    I live in the deep south.
