Etymology

Titrator comes from the verb titrate, from French titre and Latin titulus, which also gave us the English word title and means 'title' or 'label'. In chemistry titre came to mean the 'strength' or 'concentration' of a solution, so a titrator is a device that adds measured amounts of liquid to find that 'strength'.
