In the southern US they call a toque a toboggan!

I’ve lived in the south for much of my life (west of the Mississippi to be sure). I have literally never heard that.
I personally just call them my “knit hats” or “knit caps” if I’m feeling randy. Everyone else around me call them “beanies”

I live in The South. Folks around here do call those hats 'toboggans,' 'beanies,' 'knit caps,' and 'wool caps.'

Born and raised in Arkansas and never heard knit cap until I left the state. Was almost always toboggan and occasionally beanie.

Yeah they do.

Yeah, we do in Tennessee. We tend to shorten the word to "boggan", though.
