Yank doesn't work either... the whole southern population would be in an uproar. The American Civil War was Yankee Vs Confederate and even over 150 years later a southerner would blow a gasket if called a yankee. When we get irritated at northerners our go to insult is 'the damn yankee'. I'm just very very particular when it comes to names. People should be addressed how they wish to be and that is important to me.
