Morphology
excogitator = excogitate (semi-transparent) = excogitate + or
The agentive suffix '-or' regularly forms 'one who X' from a verb, so the immediate derivation is clear.
Etymology
The word excogitator comes from Latin parts ex- 'out' and cogitare 'to think', and is like the English cogitate, which means to think carefully; so an excogitator is someone who 'thinks out' ideas very deeply.
