Morphology

overcomer = overcome (transparent) = overcome + er

Standard agentive formation from the verb 'overcome' (+ -er) yielding 'person who overcomes', which learners can readily infer.

Etymology

The word overcomer comes from over ('above' or 'across') and come ('to move'), so it gives the picture of someone who 'comes over' a wall or problem. That's why an overcomer is a person who gets past big difficulties and succeeds despite opposition.
