Carnist is a description of someone who has a meat-inclusive diet, other descriptions of people by what they can or cannot eat are e.g. vegan, lactose intolerant, celiac... It's not a "name" you call someone, it's a description of someone using a certain aspect of them relevant to the discussion.
A "name", as in, something used to insult would be e.g. corpsemuncher, bloodmouth, cheesebreth &c.

It's used as a pejorative. It's disingenuous to pretend otherwise.

So, some nonvegan people? Edit: Also, that wasn't the point. Vegans call themselves vegans, nobody is asking them to call others by any name, proper or improper, in vegans' point of view.
