Etimologia

From Old Galician-Portuguese fame, from Latin famēs (“hunger”) (possibly through a Vulgar Latin alternative accusative form Latin *fam(i)ne(m), or more likely a variant nominative form *famen), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *dʰH- (“to disappear”). Compare Galician fame, Spanish hambre (Old Spanish fambre), Catalan fam, French faim, Italian fame and Romanian foame (which likewise underwent an unusual phonetic development, possibly influenced by the unrelated Latin fomes (“tinder”)).
