disobeyer

/dɪsˈoʊbaɪɚ/ noun

One who disobeys.

Word Origin Disobey comes from Latin roots: dis- 'apart, reversing' + ob- 'toward' + audire 'to hear' — so to disobey is literally to 'hear away,' to turn your ear from what's told. The -er suffix makes it the person who does that. The same audire root gives us obedient (hearing toward), inaudible (not hearable), and audiology (study of hearing).
