Red States

Yesterday, while sipping morning coffee and taking in an Under Byen auditory experience, I couldn't help but wonder:

Do people from Tampa call themselves Tampons?

So I reached out to my trusty ol' friend, Wikipedia, and found that there is an ongoing debate between the residents of Florida's finest, as to what the residents demonym would actually be.
The two that are bounced back and forth in the U.S.'s 8th "cleanest city" are Tampan and Tampanian. I happen to find both to be completely boring. I say that they should just go with Tampon and call it a day... Hopefully not a bloody one.
