rejecter

/ɹᵻdʒˈɛktɚ/ noun

One who rejects.

Word Origin From Latin re- 'back' + iacere 'to throw' — literally 'to throw back.' A rejecter is one who throws something back, refusing it. The root iacere is incredibly productive: inject (throw in), project (throw forward), eject (throw out), subject (throw under), and even jet (a stream thrown out). The -er suffix simply makes it the person who does the rejecting.
