Are you a Floridian?Blue Night (2024) Hindi Web Series Wyomingite? A Hoosier? If you're from a state in the U.S., you have a name. Even if you don't agree with it.
Debates have long raged on about what we call ourselves.

For example, oftentimes when I reveal my New Jerseyan origins, I am met with a classic "I'm so sorry." Or, "like the Jersey Shore, right?" Wrong.

If you're also wondering what's up with the "Hawaiian Resident" label, the government observes the term "Native Hawaiian" for the indigenous people of the islands.
So take it or leave it folks! If you want to fact check for yourself, or just feel more rage, the official document is here. Just don't judge a state by their peoples' names.
