My son just noted that while we refer to ourselves as Oregonians, he had no idea what you would call someone from either Kansas or Arkansas - what are they?  Kansasians?  Kansasites? Arkansawyers?  Arkansaucians?

Locals can be pretty specific on what the proper moniker is for their people group - Anyone know?

The only thing for Kansas I have ever heard or used is Kansans. The Arkansas peeps are often Arkansans, Or Arkansawans, and both suck for pronouncing. My cousin who lived there a while refused to lose his Mississippian status because of it.
