It's the Dynamic Duo! Batman and Robin!... and Red Robin and Red Hood and Nightwing and Batwoman and Batgirl and Orphan and Spoiler and Bluebird and Lark and Gotham Girl and Talon and Batwing and Huntress and Azreal and Flamebird and Batcow?
Since when could just anybody do what we trained to do? It makes it all dumb instead of special. Like it doesn't matter anymore.
-Dick Grayson (Batman Inc.)
Grant Morrison
Scott Snyder
Dennis O'Neil
Bob Kane is my fourth
Greg Rucka
Ed Brubaker
Tom King

1. Morrison
2. Tomasi
3. Rucka/Brubaker (I know I'm cheating)
Honorable mention: Snyder
Honorable honorable mention: King
1. Grant Morrison.
2. Dennis O'Neil.
3. Paul Dini.
Honourable mention: Frank Miller. All Star Batman and Robin really works against Miller, ditto for The Dark Knight Strikes Again despite him writing Batman: Year One/The Dark Knight Returns.

Comics were definitely happier, breezier and more confident in their own strengths before Hollywood and the Internet turned the business of writing superhero stories into the production of low budget storyboards or, worse, into conformist, fruitless attempts to impress or entertain a small group of people who appear to hate comics and their creators. -- Grant Morrison, 2008

Miller - he's crap now, but Dark Knight Returns and Year One are essentials.
Loeb - Long Halloween and Dark Victory are also Bat-reading essentials.
...get back to me on three...
Three writers that come to mind when you say Batman to me are Paul Dini, Grant Morrison and...... Jeph Loeb.
