Thanks for your input. My knowledge of it comes from a matter a few years ago when a barrister from Blackpool in the UK called to refer an client who had a US tax problem.
In describing the client, he said, “I do think I should warn you, so you are prepared and not surprised, that he is a “flaming bagster, but look beyond that and you’ll see he is a good sort, and pays his levies on time!”
When I asked what a “bagster” was, he diplomatically let me know it was a term over there for what some call “teabaggers” here.
Unless she is a baker, the question them becomes, “why did she adopt that name”, and I’m afraid we might well know the answer.
Be well.
By the bye, it appears that the more common name ‘Baxter’ derives from the same original term.
It’s kind of fun looking stuff up, running down clues. But before we could Google and Bing, one had to actually be well-read and with the kind of education that conferred more than mere knowledge, to do certain jobs. It was probably more fascinating then.
