Breakfaster

/ˈbreɪkfəstər/ noun

Definition

A person who eats breakfast or a meal typically served at breakfast time.

Etymology

From 'breakfast' + '-er' (one who does something). This agent noun formation was productive in English, creating 'breakfaster' to describe someone characterized by breakfast-eating.

Kelly Says

Some people are 'breakfasters' while others skip it entirely—language actually categories people by their eating habits! This word is rare in modern usage but shows how English can turn almost any activity into a person-identity.
