The words “Executor” and “Executor” can have the same confusion. They are spelled the same, but pronounced differently, and have different meanings. An “ExEcutor”…someone who takes care of a will… versus an “ExecUtor”….someone who carries out capital punishment. So to remove that confusion, an “ExecUtor” is officially known as an “Executioner”.
