So many Simons

What do you call a group of Simons, especially in situations where they are all web developers?

  • Simons (a bit dull, if you ask me)
  • Simoni
  • Simonae (I rather like this one)

What the world needs is a collective noun for Simons. My colleagues suggest the following:

  • A genius of Simons (Simon suggested that one)
  • An earlobe of Simons (from Steve, based on the original Hebrew meaning of Simon, “he who hears”)
  • An audition of Simons (ditto)

And while we’re on the subject, how about collective nouns for web developers?

And this one, my favourite from searching Google for “A * of web developers”:

  • A frequent mistake of web developers

On second thoughts, that’s better suited to journalists.
