crybabies
Sore losers, often
Crybabies is the plural of crybaby—someone who cries or complains too easily, especially over minor setbacks.
The term is dismissive, suggesting the person lacks emotional resilience: Don't be such crybabies about losing one game.
It's often used to mock those perceived as overly sensitive or prone to self-pity.
