Morphology

granter = grant (transparent) = grant + er

Agent noun formed by adding the productive suffix '-er' to the verb 'grant', meaning is directly predictable.

Etymology

Granter comes from the common verb grant, which means 'to give', plus the ending -er, meaning 'one who does'. So a granter is the person or organization that gives or formally transfers something like rights, land, or permission.
