That is a very good question & you are right. :o)
Synonyms
Other names for a cowboy in American English include cowpoke, cowhand, cowherd, and cowpuncher.
The term "cowpuncher" was especially popular with cowboys who worked in the Cherokee Strip since they were entitled to join the Cherokee Strip Cowpunchers Association which was organized in 1920.
A rancher who owns land and livestock is often referred to as a "cattleman," or less often, "cowman."

That's a good question really (not a product of a sleepy/bored mind like what answerers implied) and Michael N should get 10 pts hehe...

There are very few real cowboys left. They're a dying breed. Most of us work regular jobs and like to play cowboy on the weekends. I can rope and ride, but I'm no cowboy. Just call them cowboys and let them have their fantasy.

I don't think so, but I guess you could call an Irish cowboy a "cow-patty"

Could just call them cowpokes. That pretty much covers all age groups. It seems Michael N has covered it all though. Don't lose it though cuz you may never find it again!LOL

I agree. Cowboys can be cowmen when cowgirls get to be cowwomen. (c:

I think they earn that when the cowgirls become cow-women.
