Hmmmm.................. huh.gif good point (question)!

Like a person from Texas is a "Texan".

I'm from New Hampshire, and as far as I know, we never called ourselves (or where called by others) any certain nick name. Although, we had a clever name for people from Massachusetts. The Abbreviation of Massachusetts is "Mass". Well, using my better judgement, I won't post what we put after Mass..... whistling.gif

Any other states that have clever names (like Texas and Texans)?

Some people get around the awkward plurals by using the state nickname, for example, Hawkeyes for Iowans.
