What is the suffix for inventors?

There isn't a specific suffix exclusively for inventors. However, depending on the context, you could use:

General suffixes:

* -er: This is a common suffix for people who do something, like "writer", "baker", "singer", etc. You could use "inventor" directly.

* -ist: This suffix is used for people who specialize in a certain field, like "scientist", "artist", "linguist", etc. You could use "inventionist", though it's not very common.

Specific suffixes:

* -ologist: This suffix is used for people who study a specific field, like "biologist", "archaeologist", "geologist", etc. You could use "inventionologist" if you are referring to someone who specifically studies inventions.
