Entrepreneur is a silly word, and you sound silly ...
Same argument can be made about people calling themselves CEO of startups with no employees or product.

Ditto for the silliness of slapping engineer or hacker like marketing engineer or growth hacker.

If I bootstrap something, I will call myself "Leader Maximo" or, to honor my country, "Dux".
Unless CEO means "Chief Everything Officer."

Yes, I had a flatmate who had a "startup". She carried on her hobby (as I would call it) while her boyfriend earned a wage.

One of my previous employers went and acquired a startup that had three employees and each had a C
title. One was chief Organization Officer. What exactly are you organizing?!

Organizing a good résumé.

I have the pleasure of e-mailing with the CEO of a very small hobby-like website the other day.
