It doesn't matter what makes sense to you. "American" is the correct term.
Do you also say "Unitedkingdomers" since the "British Isles" includes the Republic of Ireland?
no, you just say Irish, they're lucky like that.
when precision is needed, we also have English, Scottish, Welsh &c.
Mexicans and Canadians too are Americans. So i will just call you Bob from now on.
