Fletcher is a word meaning someone who makes arrows.

Strictly speaking, a Fletcher is someone who Fletches arrows (puts the flight feathers on), while an 'arrow maker' makes the wooden part of the arrow.

Over time, these two skills came to be undertaken by the same person and hence Fletcher became synonymous with arrow making.
