I’m originally from New York, where DC was always Washington or Washington, DC, and the state was always Washington State.

Which makes no sense. DC is shorter to say to get the point across. Washington is shorter to say than Washington state to get the point across. Maybe I should start adding state to every states name so people hear how ridiculous is sounds to say something like Texas State. Sounds more like a university. We have one we call Washington state.
