Convert user id to user name in a single rest query that gets list items

Question

So I get some items from a list via a rest query, and in the Creator field I get an ID. I want to display the name of the user and not the ID. Calling the GetUserByID isn't an option because it might be 100+ calls and I am using angular to bind the data, so it won't fit pretty well.

I've looked in FieldValuesAsHtml, AsText and ForEdit, none of which gives the name. How can I get the name in the same query?

But a much "cleaner" answer can be found in Ramana's comment, without unnecessary explanations.
