Why are people from Holland called Dutch and not Hollish?

Holland is actually only a part of the Netherlands, but often used for the whole country.
Not sure about your question though. All I know is that I'm Dutch and that I live in the Netherlands.

@NankerPhelge It'd be impossible to know the majority.

@Mandalorian I wouldn't have thought of that. Too vague.
@NankerPhelge I know right? It's more painful for me 😂

It's also called the Netherlands. One of the most confusing countries. Three unrelated terms to describe the same place
In Arabic it's all the same
We call it Hollanda (country)
Hollandi (male adjective)
Hollandia (female adjective)
