Note: I don't know whether "endonym" is actually used, I coined it myself. --- Alex 05:32, 16 August 2005 (UTC) reply

Strictly speaking, that word may not even exist in English. I cannot find it in my dictionary. However, Yahoo search finds some websites with it, so it may well be a legitimate word. REX 19:37, 8 September 2005 (UTC) reply

That's a relief, because using invented words is never a good idea ;) . Alex 22:04, 9 September 2005 (UTC) reply

the common term is autonym (not endonym). peace – ishwar   (speak) 21:07, 1 November 2005 (UTC) reply

ethnology = science dealing with races. - Merriam-Webster Dictionary. (Dennis)—Preceding unsigned comment added by 156.99.236.101 ( talk) 21:25, 7 November 2008 (UTC) reply

There were several reasons to remove the Simpsons quote.

A) It implied that one group was always in North America and did not immigrate. Everyone immigrated, some were just there first.

B) The "confusion" about ethnonyms was already demonstrated by several other cited references in the article.

C) Quoting the Simpsons might leave the reader wondering whether what's being said is intended as a joke.

D) The quote is basically "Trivia" under a different name.
