Change makers or changes makers

Hello, please, I am not sure if "changes makers" sounds natural to native speakers.
Does "change makers" sound any better? We have "changes makers" used in our company documents. Do you think it is ok?

Thank you for help Emotion: smile

  • Do you mean "ma r kers"?
  • Are they some sort of marks in the margins of the documents?
  • We don't normally pluralize modifiers, so "change marker" seems to me to be the correct form, if that's actually what you are talking about.

I mean, change maker is a person who provokes, creates change (or so).

So, you don't normally pluralize modifiers. Does "changes makers" sound completely unnatural then?
