In addition to formal demonyms, many nicknames are used for residents of the different settlements and regions of the United Kingdom. For example, natives and residents of Liverpool are formally referred to as Liverpudlians, but are most commonly referred to as Scousers (after their local dish). Some, but not all, of these nicknames may be derogatory. Many derive from sports clubs, especially football ones.Template:Citation needed Involved demonyms tend to attract offensive parodies.Template:Citation needed
