Morphology

Creator = create (transparent) = create + or

Standard agentive formation: 'create' + '-or' yields 'one who creates'; the religious title is a predictable extension.

Etymology

Creator comes from the Latin root creare, which means 'to make' and is the same root as the familiar verb create. So a Creator is someone who 'makes' or brings things into being, which is why people often use it as a name for God.
