I am a resident of Michigan and from what I know the common nicknames are Winter Wonderland- we got this name do to the intense amont of snow we get in the winter most of it in the UP (upper pininsula), The Great Lake State- we got this name do to the large fresh water lakes that surrond us (some of the largest in the world) and then there is The Wolverine State- we got this name NOT because we have alot of wolverines in Michigan (actually they are VERY rare) but because of our fiercness towards Ohio (Ohio gave us that nickname) when we wanted the Toledo strip but that is a whole different story. Another interesting fact is Michigan got is name from Mishigami (a french interpertaion of a native American word) wich means Great Waters and the French settelers gave us that name.
