There are numerous other terms in print, but not in use, such as:
'Connecticotian' - Cotton Mather in 1702.
'Connecticutensian' - Samuel Peters in 1781.
'Nutmegger' is sometimes used. It is derived from the nickname, the Nutmeg State, based on the practice of the Connecticut peddlers who traveled about selling nutmegs. https://cezl.wordpress.com/tag/connecticotian/
