What is someone who plays the ukulele called?

Like a pianist or bassist, what would someone who plays the ukulele be called? I need definite correct grammar.

Jolly too.


I mean seriously, imagine you're a fat Hawaiian who gets to play the ukulele all the time.


I know I'd be all smiles.


I mean, before the stroke at least.

I suppose the term would be "ukelelist". (Say that ten times fast). I've often been called a "Pansy". I guess the little thing makes me look like a small flower?

The real answer is a musician.

Is the Mandolin less of an instrument because of it's size?
