Clear agentive nominalization from the verb 'vibrate' using the suffix '-or', meaning 'a thing that vibrates'.

Etymology

Vibrator comes from the old Latin word vibrāre, which means 'to shake', and it is the same root as the English word vibrate. So a vibrator is literally a 'shaker', a device that makes muscles or machine parts shake to relax or stimulate them.
