What is states have more than three syllables?

There are no states in the United States that have more than three syllables.

While some state names might seem long, they all fit within the three-syllable limit. For example:

* Pennsylvania has four syllables, but the emphasis is on the first two, making it effectively a two-syllable word for most people.

* Mississippi has four syllables, but the emphasis is on the first two, making it effectively a two-syllable word for most people.
