grinner

/ɡɹˈɪnɚ/ noun

Agent noun of grin; one who grins.

Word Origin Grin comes from a Proto-Germanic word that meant baring the teeth — not always a friendly gesture originally. Over time, it softened into a smile. A grinner is someone who grins, and the root *ghren- also gives us grinningly, the adverb form.
