Quiz: Do You Know State Nicknames?

Every state in the United States has at least one state nickname and most have several. Some of the nicknames are quite well known. In other cases, people might find it challenging to identify the state from the nickname. In fact, people living in a particular state might not recognize all of the state nicknames for that state.

All of this makes for a fun and interesting quiz. In this quiz, I will list a state nickname and list three states. See if you can match the state with its nickname. This isn’t as easy as it seems. You might be surprised by some of the answers. Are you ready?

  1. You`re right – some surprises. My main surprise was that I managed to get any of them right at all! Florida was the only obvious answer – that is, after all, how it got the name.
