idolizer

/ˈaɪdəlˌaɪzɚ/ noun

One who idolizes.

Word Origin Idolizer comes from 'idolize' + '-er,' meaning one who idolizes. 'Idol' is from Greek 'eidolon' meaning an image or phantom, from PIE *weyd- 'to see.' So an idol is something you see and worship. The same root gives us 'idea,' 'vision,' 'video,' and 'wit' (originally 'seeing' as knowing). So an idolizer is someone who makes images into objects of devotion.
