[Buddha-l] Buddhist words for "Buddhist"

[mongaikan (tin)]

I'm not an expert in sanskrit (or english, as you may notice) but i came 
across the noun "bauddha" mostly. i found also "saugata" (on the same 
lines) but only in dictionaries so i can't say anything about its actual 
diffusion in indic languages.
regards,
