The general catch-all which seems to encompass paleo, primal, EvFit, etc. which I think works well is: "ancestral diet"

Though we like to refer to ourselves as carnivores, we do eat plants, so by definition, we are technically omnivores. But regarding our specific diet, there's lots of terms:

1. paleolithic diet
2. primal blueprint
3. evolutionary fitness
4. caveman diet (I loath this one!)
5. stone-age diet
6. hunter gatherer diet
7. ancestral diet
8. very low carb
9. zero carb

So we could call ourselves:

• primals - confusing...
• paleos - this is my preference
• carnies - anyone want to call themselves a clown?

But let's dig deeper...

From Wiki, about the term 'vegan':

The word vegan was coined in 1944 by Donald Watson, who combined the first three and last two letters of vegetarian to form "vegan," which he saw as "the beginning and end of vegetarian."

So if we combine one of those phrases from above, we could get:

• hugans!

It's from hunter gatherer. I guess that was obvious. So even though I'm perfectly happy calling us all "paleos"; my submission for a new name is official:

Hugans. Like human, but healthier.

I think focusing on the fact that we are adapted through evolution to this diet/lifestyle is the key. It's how we are supposed to eat. That's what we need to capture.

It also means that we have the high ground, so let's claim it!

The natural human diet.

The metabolically natural human diet.

Eating what we are adapted to eat.

The original human diet.

The foods that humans are designed to eat.

...Something along those lines.

We are healthy.

i say I am a healthy eater when people ask, and that healthy eating entails eating a paleo diet.

There's always the old standby "flesh eater."

Paleos works for me.

I like to think of myself as a hunter gatherer

Why do we need a label? I just tell people I don't eat processed foods or grain products.

I am an aspiring centenarian. That is why I eat eat healthy and what I tell people when they ask how I eat.

I'm in it for the long haul, optimal nutrition. Paleo is just the closest "diet" to explain to people in the know, that I avoid processed and want a high nutritionally dense whole food lifestyle. A Centenarian's diet

I follow the Old School, New Science way of life, but I fear that is not catchy enough.

I'm an optimal-ist, to play off of what stephan said.

Am I EVO, yes I am. (sung)

I'm cave man 2.0, now with grocery store technology.

I generally say that I am paleo, or more descriptive, with "no grains, no processed foods", or "mostly meat and veggies" line. I do think of myself as a carnivore, as that's majority of what I eat. When I talk to Jews it's easier to explain by "basically I keep ashkenazi Pessach all year round, without the matza". My students heard many times pieces and chunks on what I eat, and some of them call me a carnivore.

Sometimes I also use the "evolutionary diet" b/c I like to emphasize the evolution part in the logic.
