Python : Pythonista / Ruby: Rubyist : / D : ?

Hi list, I hope the question is self-evident from the message subject. If not, it means: what are D developers generally called (to indicate that they develop in D)? The question occurred to me somehow while browsing some D posts on the forums just now. DLanger? DLangist? D'er? Doer? :) I tend to favor DLanger, FWIW. Interested to know, just for fun ... I do realize that there may not be commonly known or accepted terms like this for all languages. For example, I don't know if there is such a term for a C or C++ developer. Might make for an interesting thread.

That one was obvious, and same for C, C++ or any other language too. I meant if there was a nickname of some sort, like Pythonista or Rubyist, as said in subject.
