disgracer

/dɪsɡɹˈeɪsɚ/ noun

someone who disgraces.

Word Origin From Latin dis- 'away' and gratia 'favor, grace' — to disgrace is to remove favor, to bring shame. A disgracer is someone who does that. The same root gratia gives us grace, gracious, grateful (full of thanks), ingrate (not thankful), and even agree (to be in favor with). The PIE root *gwere- meant 'to favor, praise.'
