The honoree is the person who receives an honour, a prize, or a special night. If a school holds a dinner to thank a teacher, that teacher is the honoree. American English uses this word a lot on invitations and in newspapers; British English more often says the person being honoured. The ending -ee points to the one who receives something. So the honoree gets the honour; they do not give it. Though actually, at a big awards night there may be several honorees, and the host is not one of them unless they are also being thanked.
受獎人、獲獎者、受表彰者
組成From honor + -ee (the person who receives the action).
