I’ve always preferred calling it “trans-atlantic” to avoid confusion with the “Mid-Atlantic Region” of the US which is on the East Coast roughly from New Jersey down to Virginia, maybe the very northern Coast of North Carolina. Some people include New York/NYC but I can’t agree.
I thought it was native to wealthy families from Jersey/Virginia/Maryland. People that grew up in Martha’s vineyard.

That’s definitely where my mind goes.

Only if they copied the movies. Stewie in the Family Guy speaks in a Mid-Atlantic accent which is why he pronounces his H’s etc.
