Hornists are what French horn players are called. The French horn is a true horn. It's a member of the brass instrument family.
The term 'hornist' also is applied to players of basset and English horns. But basset and English horns aren't true horns. They aren't members of the brass instrument family. Instead, they're woodwinds.
Players of the Basset horn more rightly may be called clarinettists. The basset horn really is a tenor Clarinet. Players of the English horn may be called oboists. The English horn really is an alto Oboe.
You would call a person who plays the French horn a "hornist."
