What are people from your city/town/area called?

i meant i know a Glaswegian in the real world … but, let’s up my anty …
Hi ! I’m Pixisis. Pleased to meet you. :wink:

Confugians :smiley:

I grew up on the Jersey Shore, so I was a local and everyone who was not from the Shore but went down the Shore was a Bennie (NOT a polite term, for the record; don’t bandy this word about).

I now live in Raleigh, so we’re most of us who live here are called Yankees. My old roommate who was a triangle local had a particularly impolite term for people like me, but I’ve blocked it from my memory.

A trianglo-saxon?

Bubba.

Even the girls.

That made me giggle. Ok, Ok, I snorted. :stuck_out_tongue:

I forget people can’t read my mind: Triangle (or Triad) = Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill, NC. She was a Durhamite? Durhamian? Durhmaniac?

I’ve heard 2 different terms:

Gallatonians

Gallatonites

Lawrencian.

Kansas Citian.

We’re not to clever around here.

People who live in the city of St Louis call people who live in the county Bubbas.

Boiseans, Idahoans, nothing too odd or unusual.

What about people from Truth of Consequences, New Mexico? Truth-or-Consequencians?

In Earlimart, CA, we are Earlimartians.
In Fresno, Fresnans.

Cyn, former Earlimartian.

From Tampa: Tampanian, Tamponian, or just plain Tampon.

In Baton Rouge: I don’t know, but I’ve wondered this myself. Baton Rouge-ians? Well, half of us are “New Orleanians” now.

Santa…Barbarians?

“Santa Barbarian” actually gets slightly more Google hits than “Santa Barbaran” at the time of this posting. Cool.

Just plain ol’ Memphians.

Although I’ve heard SOME folks refer to us as Memphricans, but that’s not very nice.

Commuters.

I’m from Dayton, Ohio- those people are called Daytonians.

I’ve recently come to Madison, Wisconsin. I don’t know what people here are supposed to be called… I just call them hippies.

In the same vein, I know that folk from Galway are called Galwegians. It must be a Celtic thing …

People from Dublin, Ireland are Dubliners or jackeens, while people from the country (yes, even Cork) are called cultchies.

Oxonians. Don’t ask me why …

I’ve also lived in Liverpool (Liverpudlians or scousers), Newcastle (Geordies, or very rarely Novocastrians) and Buckinghamshire (toffee-nosed stuck-up Southern ponces).

Tasmanian folk use Taswegian a bit. It started off as a cutesy thing, but I think it’s gone a little beyond that now.

UPDATE. Apparantly we’re just called “Stone Mountain residents.”

Blech.

“Bremertonians”

Although there is a class of citizens that have gained a certain notoriety, thanks to rapper Sir Mix-a-Lot, known as Bremelos

According to the Rap Dictionary, a Bremelo is:

Think “An Officer and a Gentleman”, which was filmed near here.
