Sorry, I can help you, but some words I like are verbivore, logolept, and (mine own) wordhoarding (< Old English compound word-hord 'vocabulary'). (A thesaurus is literally a 'treasure box'.) The problem with these kinds of neologisms and inkhorn words is that they seldom appear anywhere other than in dictionaries.
Ceci n'est pas un seing.
