I think that's the problem. What else do you call them? United Staters and Statesiders were the two prominent ones from a poll that I remember from a few years ago. Seppos was third, Yank was probably fourth.

Who cares what other people call us. Part of being American is self entitlement to do whatever the fuck we want. I'm sure South America and Canada are gonna put up a fight.

The politically correct people just call us US citizens, I don't see why that's not good enough.
most people already call us the US, just like they call the United Kingdom the UK. It's way less pompous/arrogant than America.

Somehow I've gotten through a lifetime here without referring to it as much of anything. This is also my strategy for nebulous "call me ___" situations when I feel uncomfortable doing so.
I think of the name situation as arbitrary and inflammatory, like correcting someone's misspeak when everyone knew what they meant.
