geographun, I know that Long Island is called Long Island. I live there too, I just thought that if all the other islands are accepted without "Island", it should be as well.

thats dumb, do people say hey are you from "long"? no never, they say long island. I might say manhattan, but people do still refer to it as manhattan island. Noone ever refers to long island as simply Long.

If you can accept South and North, I don't see any problems with Long.

'South' and 'North' are hardly official names either. So 'Long' must be OK.

Ireland is considered an island? It's not completely surrounded by water.

Surely those Carribean islands are part of north America. When did they migrate to a different continent all of a sudden?
