The actual name varies depending on how the state is spelled Florida is not a Floridan, but Floridian, while Alaska is an Alaskan.

Californian, Texan, Arizonian. Arizonan seems both spellings are used, but Arizonan is usually an adjective

I know Texans are Tejanos. For other states, I'm not completely sure. You could say something like 'de California,' o 'de Arizona'

Si, Soy de Tejas. I am from Texas. In English I would be called a Texan y en espanol soy un Tejano. Pero yo vivo en Florida ahora. But I live in Florida now. Entonces soy un Floridian también. So now I'm a Floridian too. smile It really varies from state to state. Generally speaking, add "ian" o "an" to the end of texas, arizona, california, y florida.

Mira la respuesta antes:

Californian, Texan, Arizonian, Oregonian.

Uno de Arkansas = Razorback.

No hay una regla uniforme.

Para algunos estados no hay nombres por los que provienen de allí, por ejemplo, Connecticut, por ser demasiado complicado el nombre.
