Yeah but. I lived in Indiana for a long time and most people just say Indianan. Hoosier is more of a Midwest thing. I'm from Arkansas, and that and Florida is a little odd. It's pronounced differently than the state is.

Most people from where? Everyone in Indiana says Hoosier. Maybe it is a Midwest thing, but I don't know how I'd react if someone called me an Indianan. It doesn't even sound correct (admittedly, at least 20% of these sound really awkward).
