Hmm, this got me to look up the demonym for people from Barbados. I hoped it would be something interesting, but the official one is pretty boring: Barbadians. But, the unofficial one is a bit interesting: Bajans. I thought it would be pronounced like the Spanish “baja”, but apparently it’s “Bay - jenz”. Which is a bit cool. Not as cool as their flag, but still cool.
Rhianna is from Barbados? Huh, TIL.
