| Naming Notes | Brachtor is a contraction of: "brachy-" (Ancient Greek "βραχύς", meaning slow), "auct-" (Latin "auctor", meaning "seller" or "author". This was erronously chosen; what was intended was Latin "augesco", meaning to grow), and "-tor" (Latin "(t/s)or" meaning "-er" (agentive suffix)). The intended meaning is "slow-grower". |
