Word origin

The word 'endorser' originated from the verb 'endorse', which comes from the Latin word 'indorsare' meaning 'to write on the back'. Originally used in the context of signing the back of a document to authorize or guarantee it, 'endorse' evolved to also mean expressing approval or support. The noun 'endorser' emerged to refer to a person or entity that provides public support or recommendation, especially in the realms of advertising, politics, and endorsements.
