· The Atlantic
Were there a demonym for Atlantic readers, would it be Atlanticists? Atlanteans? Atlantickers? The one for Atlantic Trivia players is easier: That’s just geniuses.

My favorite demonym, however, is the bit of phonetic magic that turns the disparate St. Kitts and Nevis into the rhyming pair Kittitian (kuh-TEE-shun) and Nevisian (nuh-VEE-shun).
See you tomorrow!
