Why is it called a Bator?

I got asked by a new shooter why the Lee 22 Bator was called “Bator”
Is it named after its designer?

I don’t know.

Wally Bator designed several boolits for us over the years. All of them are good designs. I think a couple companies have added them to their catalogs.

Thanks for the reply. I was hoping it had a common sense explanation.
