ECTOR. Arthurian.
A variant form of Latin Hector
(q.v.), meaning "defender." The name
of a knight who was foster father to king Arthur.
There once
lived in Britain a great king named Uther. When he died every lord
in the land wanted to become king in his place. Now King Uther had
a son whom he had secretly sent to a good knight to be brought up.
The boy's name was Arthur; the good knight's name was Sir Ector.
Arthur, knowing nothing of King Uther, believed that Sir Ector was his
father and loved him dearly... (Modern English: Bk. 1, Lessons in
Language, Emerson-Bender, 1920)
