The origin for the word fairy varies, one source says that it comes from the Latin word fata, which translates to fate which links them to the Greek fates who controlled people's destinies.

Fairies have been known in the past to steal babies away from their mother's and replace them with a fairy child ( a changeling). Sometimes adults have been abducted by fairies and taken to the hollow hills where the fairies lived (fairy realm); if you ate any food in the realm of the fairies you would never be allowed to return to the human realm.
