Hej, Stopfordians πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡ͺ But why are Stockport residents known as Stopfordians rather than Stockportians?

A Stopfordian (plural Stopfordians) is an inhabitant of Stockport. en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Stopfordian

 

Other derivations of STOCKPORT based on early variants such as STOPFORD and STOCKFORD. There is evidence that a Ford across the Mersey existed at the foot of Bridge Street Brow. Stopford retains a use in the adjectival form, Stopfordian. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stockport
