awarder

/æwˈɔɹdɚ/ noun

One who awards, or assigns by sentence or judicial determination; a judge, arbitrator or umpire.

Word Origin Awarder comes from the idea of watching over something carefully before making a decision. The word 'award' itself blends Latin ex- 'thoroughly' with the Germanic root for 'guard' — literally, to watch over completely. That's why an awarder is someone who judges and then bestows. The same root 'ward' gives us warden, guard, and reward (something given back after watching).

noun One who awards, or assigns by sentence or judicial determination; a judge, arbitrator or umpire. countable
