If the user earned those in the early days of bitcoin, I'll call him an early adapter. If the user earned it in 2012-2014, I'll call him The Gox Survivor. If the user earned it in 2015-2016, I'll call him the Elusive Scammer or Successful Investor.

You call it a HUMAN. Regardless of the money he has you can call him a human since he is still a human. He never became immortal when he acquired those bitcoins. jk Cheesy

...There's got to be a better name. 'Bitcoin Whale' is just so meaningless and some people don't consider BTC1000 a whale anyways.

1000BTC is called an adolescent common bottlenose dolphin.

bitcoinare   sounds about right, the public will  call people bitcoinare's   and will also call  satoshi's   sats.  just like they call money cash.

Depends on the basis that you're using. 1.000 BTC is 1.000.000 mBTC and 1.000.000.000 bits. So the guy is either a millionaire in mBTC or a billionaire in bits.
End of subject.

if he owns a few bits or a million bit he is a bitcoiner ,if he has that much coins, he is a millionaire or early miner who mined during the initial two years.

you can call him the devil if you want ,since some have more than you have  Grin

Someone with a million dollars, euros, pounds or pesos is a millionaire. No one (Okay maybe Satoshi) has a million Bitcoins and probably never will.

So what's someone with BTC1000 called? A thousandaire? There's got to be a better name. 'Bitcoin Whale' is just so meaningless and some people don't consider BTC1000 a whale anyways.

What should we call a Bitcoin thousandaire?

Update: We should come up with a name for someone with a thousand Bitcoins. Why, you ask? We need to stop converting Bitcoins to fiat and vice versa. Treat it as a currency or a vessel to hold your wealth. Saying someone with 1000 Bitcoins is 'someone with $400,000USD' will be pointless at some point in our lifetimes.

Let's come up with a name so we stop comparing Bitcoins to fiat. You wouldn't tell someone with 10M pesos that because they're worth less than dollars they aren't a millionaire based on American dollars. You also wouldn't compare USD to gold anytime someone brought up how much a house costs.

Me: "Hey Bill. I'm buying the big house at the top of the hill for $1,000,000"
Bill: "Oh so like 25kg of gold?"

That's just ludicrous. No one compares different currencies or vessels of wealth as much as Bitcoiners. Let's stop it by coming up with basic terms.
