Are you guys aware that some Costa Ricans actually HATE the word "tico"? Tico is more like brits for english people or argies for Argentinians, my point is that even though is socially accepted, some people would never use tico instead of the formal "costarricense" - Contemporary Costa Ricans barely end words using -ico/-ica like they used to 100 years ago when the rest of central americans notice it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 186.15.154.130 (talk) 15:26, 23 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Costa Rican people → Costa Ricans – as per WP:CONCISE and WP:CONSISTENCY. We should use similar titles to Canadians, Norwegians, etc. Basically everywhere that there's a common short form for a people, we use it. Red Slash 18:11, 21 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support – Ethnic groups that have a singular non-gendered unambiguous name are usually labelled as such. See Hungarians, Swedes, Germans, Americans. Only in cases where such a form doesn't exist, as with French people or Japanese people, is the form "x people" used. Per WP:CONSISTENCY and WP:CONCISE, this article should be moved. See others in Category:Ethnic groups in Europe, for example. The proposed title is simply better. RGloucester — ☎ 02:36, 22 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
