History & Origin

This one is a modern build. Fae traces to Old French fae, 'fairy', and it has been wedded to the popular -lynn ending. The pairing itself is new — coined, not handed down.

Still a rarity in the books, it leans whimsical and light.

Did you know? The Fae element belongs to the same old word that gives us 'fey' and the 'fairy folk' of folklore.
