Is there a noun for “person in a reverie”? Day-dreamer seems closest but is clumsy. I’d like something with the same stem. Revere/reverent/reverend seem to have different roots though they’re in the neighborhood (reverence seems to me to be a kind of prayerful reverie but it’s unrelated looks like)
