In German, Schneider is an occupational noun and means Tailor- one who cuts cloth- someone in the clothing business. We have anglicized it to Taylor, as in the Late Elizabeth. Curiously, Elizabeth Taylor set a record for costume changes- including minor ones such as sandals and special hats and crowns, in Cleopatra. It was claimed there were 300 sartorial shifts. Yes, Sartorius is Latin for the Schneider line of work!
