Householder
Inherited last name
A householder is someone who owns or rents a dwelling and is responsible for it—the head of a household.
The term appears in census forms, tax documents, and legal contexts where it matters who holds the lease or deed: The survey counted all householders in the district.
In some religious traditions, householder describes a lay person living in domestic life rather than monastic renunciation.
