Etymology (English)

In summary

Inherited from Old Spanish fama, probably a semi-learned borrowing from Latin fāma (partly due to phonetic reasons: initial f did not become h, and because it preserved the Latin sense perfectly; additionally its derivatives are also learned), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *bheh₂-mā-, from *bheh₂- (“to speak”).
