A question on the correct terminology for someone who collects meteorites?

A meteorologist is someone that studies the atmoshpere and properties
related to our weather.

A numismatist is a collector of monies and related articles, coins,
banknotes, shares, cheques., a notaphilist is someone that specialises in
banknote currencies.

What, are we to call ourselves, there must be a correct terminology for what
we are?

Collectors of meteorites.
