I used to prefer pythonista, because I thought it sounded more revolutionary. But then I realized it sounded like someone who writes scripts to serve coffee.

I don't feel right calling myself a pythoneer, since I'm not doing new and interesting things with my code.

I decided I'm a pythologist, since I do spend a lot of time trying to figure out why things are broken.

Pythoneer sure sounds like a Python Pioneer. But perhaps for someone, who calls himself so(and not e.g. put the title on a business card), one can consider pythoneer as python engineer.
Then it may include both, finding out what/why is broken, and using available tools creatively to solve and improve things.

Wouldn't that be a pythongineer?
Yes it could be. It didn't come to mind though, and doesn't sound as smooth either :D
and if you consistently copy another's code and claim it as your own, you are a 'pyrate' or perhaps a 'pythuccaneer'  Smile
No one suggested Parselmouth?
I believe you just did  Big Grin
maybe i am a pythonavist.
