ENERGIZER comes from "energize" plus the agent suffix "-er." The root "energy" derives from Greek "energeia" meaning "activity" or "operation," coined by Aristotle from "en" (in) + "ergon" (work). The -izer ending indicates "one who does" or "that which causes," making an energizer literally "that which puts work into something."
