This is a list of demonyms used to designate the citizens of specific states, federal district, and territories of the United States. Official English-language demonyms are established by the United States Government Publishing Office (USGPO); however, many other terms are in common use. Though most states use suffixes in their demonyms, Hawaii is an anomaly, as the USGPO demonym is "Hawaii resident." This is to distinguish people of various ethnic groups who live in Hawaii from the native Hawaiians.
