People from Edinburgh call themselves Edinburghians but according to the Edinburgh University Library - "Unlike Glaswegian, Mancunian, Liverpudlian etc., citizens of Glasgow, Manchester, and Liverpool, there appears to be no definitive name for citizens of Edinburgh. There are references to Edinburger, Edinburgher, and Edinburghian."

There isn't actually a definite term for us. I think most people would call themselves Edinburghers, though.

There is a scottish book about Glasgow and Edinburgh rivallry called "WEEGIES V EDINBUGGERS".
I think officially they would just be called Edinburghers . . . but not 100% sure!

Edinburghonian, Edinburghian, Edinburgher. Take your pick.
I prefer to call myself an Edinburghonian but there is no definative answer that everyone agrees upon.
What do called someone from Middlesborough? A Middlesboronian? same thing.

I know what we Weegies call them, but Yahoo would just star it out! Failing that, Edinbuggers works for me!
