Let's see.... how about "Clod Hopper"? Or, if that's too technical, I've heard my state as being populated by "Iowegians" and "Iowans"...
My girlfriend is from Lousiana originally.... she refers to herself as a Cajun. Jeff Foxworthy would call her "a special breed of redneck".

And definitely not ashamed of it...the weirdos are usually the people who move here from other states to get away from repression and then cut loose like a college freshman away from mommy and daddy for the first time! Then they breed and it keeps getting worse.

im a Kylan or Kylite (Kyle) and a Texan most importantly. Kylan is too tough to say, most people call me cowboy and im fine with that.
from all those northern states yall are known as yankees, it sounds funny when you try to say anything else, too politically correct
it strikes me though that if i were to happen to be from Maine, id want to be called a Mainiac

Now it's starting to get interesting. It's gonna be tough to keep it clean. There's a town just South of Chicago called Beecher. I always wondered what they called their local meat market...or if they had a machine shop called 'Beecher Tool & Die'? Not that far from me is the town of Seaman, Ohio...don't know if they have a bank. You have to wonder what towns with names like this call their High School teams? I've traveled through three small towns in Mississippi South of Jackson named 'Hot Coffee', D'Lo, and Soso. Would you trade at a place called 'Soso auto repair'?

Being originally from Massachusetts and having the opportunity to travel the country for business, I've been called a lot of things. Some that come to mind...
In Texas "You're a Yankee"
In California "You're a Pilgrim"
In Ohio "You're a Kennedy-ite"
In Tennessee "You're a B-aahh-stonian"
and my personal favorite...
In New Hampshire & Maine "Oh, you're a Mass-hole"
In Texas "You're a Yankee"
In California "You're a Pilgrim"
In Ohio "You're a Kennedy-ite"
In Tennessee "You're a B-aahh-stonian"
