Doggerelizer

/ˈdɒɡərəlaɪzər/ noun

Definition

Someone or something that doggerelizes; a person who turns proper writing into cheap verse.

Etymology

From doggerelize plus the agent noun suffix -er (one who does the action).

Kelly Says

This word is a fun example of how English stacks suffixes—you start with an insult ('doggerel'), add a verb-maker (-ize), then add a person-maker (-er) to create a compound insult!
