How about some "rationalists"? They're all equally as sceptical as any of of the aforementioned and work towards the same general end as far as application and education are concerned, yet are more focused on economics, cognitive biases, neuroscience, naturalism and moral philosophy than the skeptics who tend to focus on application of reason to commonly held beliefs - sort of like two branches of the same school of thought.

Some I personally hold in high regard:

Robin Hanson
Bryan Caplan
John Danaher
Elizer Yudkowsi
Julia Galef
Luke Muelhausser
