If a person from Glasgow is a Glasweigian, what is a person from Edinburgh to be called?
Answers:
I's suggest calling them 'pal' or failing that 'John'.
Polski
There isn't an official word for this.
I asked this question to friends not long ago and the general answer was a bawbag;)
Edinburghian
An Edinburger.
An idiot!
An Edinburger
How about an "Auld Reekian"?
A Burger?
It would make sense, especially because you can tell the clan of a Scotsman by putting your hand up his kilt. If it's quarter-pounder, he's a McDonald ;-)
Well this is an interesting question but i think people from Edinburgh are call Edinburghian lol
It's an Edinburghdonian, to match the other east coast cities (Aberdonian, Dundonian).
how about a Scott
JOCK
lucky!
A chavy .. suppose it's better than a PURE WEEGIE MAN .
I'm not 100% certain what a Glasweigian calls somebody from Edinburgh - but I know what they call someone from London.
I certainly know what one called me the other night in the pub when I told him he was smoking in a non-smoking area!
The doctor said I should be able to walk in about 4 days time but it might take a bit longer to get the glass out of my scalp.
there is no name for them
an ****..ole
An Orc.
a loser
Snob is the word that immediately springs to mind.

Anything you like - I work in the City there, and most people you encounter in shops hospitality service etc are foreign. East Coaster is probably about right, but if you go to
experts.about.com/q/Scottish-C.
it will tell you that.
People from Edinburgh call themselves Edinburghians.
