Per a discussion in 6W, I have found out that (through research of calling other teachers and google) that people from Connecticut are called "Connecticuters" or even "Nutmeggers." As I understand the website to say, they are called "nutmeggers" because their state spice is nutmeg. However, "Connecitcutians" is gaining in popularity. Typically, though, people in New England simply call themslves "New Englanders."
Now, I know what you're thinking. A state spice? Missouri does NOT have a state spice, so don't ask.
Thanks to google for that one,
Mrs. Doenges :)
