Pronounced as (IPA)

Etymology

Possibly for Proto-Italic *fassos, from pre-Italic *dʰH-t-tós, from Proto-Indo-European *dʰeH- (“to fade, disappear”) (compare Old Irish ru-deda (“to vanish”), Old English demm (“harm”)), but this is uncertain due to both phonetic and semantic problems. Connected with Latin famēs, affatim, fatīscō, fatīgō.
