dedicatees
Those being honored
Dedicatees are those to whom something is dedicated—typically the people named in a book's dedication or honored by a musical composition, memorial, or other tribute.
An author's dedicatees might be family members, mentors, or deceased loved ones: The dedicatees of her collected poems included three former teachers.
