Birminghams

Birminghams is a term that may be used to refer to people associated with the city name Birmingham. It is not a widely established or formal demonym, and it is rarely used in standard reference works.

Usage and context: In English, residents of Birmingham, England are commonly called Brummies, and those from Birmingham, Alabama are sometimes described as Birminghamers; the plural Birminghams would generally be understood only as a generic plural referring to people from any place named Birmingham. Because it lacks a fixed, official definition, the term can be ambiguous and is more likely to appear in informal speech or when listing possible names rather than in formal writing.

Geography and scope: The most prominent places named Birmingham are Birmingham, England, in the West Midlands, and Birmingham, Alabama, in the United States. The name also exists in other locales, including smaller communities in different countries. In those contexts, a group described as Birminghams would be composed of residents from one of the Birmingham locations, though the specific city would need to be clarified to avoid confusion.
