The word is not Michigander. The word is Michiganian. You're welcome from me in Henderson.

Just be happy it ain't "meshugenner". That's all I have to say for now, and I won't add any emoticons to sweeten things up either.

State of Michigan had a Congressional vote; they say we're Michiganders.

Michiganian sounds weird because typically if the name of a place ends with a consonant then the denonym ends in -er/ar [[New Yorker, Vermonter, Rhode Islander). Places ending in -a tend to have denonyms with -ian endings [[California, South Carolina, Alabamian).

ETA: -n endings seem to be the exception to the "rule on consonant endings. There are two other state names in the U.S. that ends in -n, and neither uses the -er/-ar convention [[Washingtonians, Wisconsinites).
