The word "Fenths": does it exist in english?

[Passant the Weak]

Hello,

I was looking for a definition of teh word Fenth, and have been unable to find one. It seems that this word does not exist in English. Could anyone confirm that? If that word does exist (with that spelling or an approaching one), could you point me to a definition of that word?

I used some online dictionnaries with no success.

Thanks!

i do not believe it is an english word, i have never heard it used, or seen it until i played MD.

I've met a couple of people who have it as their last name, but as far as I know it doesn't mean anything in any language that I've checked. It could be derived from something, though.

The closest thing I personally know of to Fenth is Fenthion, which is an insecticide.

Thanks all for the immediate answers! Much appreciated.

There is also fen or fens meaning a bog or marshland

nice how such a word is not in any language no?
like many other things that were done in md to be totally original

[Passant the Weak]

Hmmm, well done then. It made me use my brain.... like many things in MD.

Its the merit of the writer that worked on md many years ago, Adi. Its not easy to find names that are so original, and i was quite insisting that they need to be 'clean' of previous meanings, otherwise their meaning might get tained.

Even when you make up a word independently of any outer influences, there's still a good chance that another language uses that word, or something similar, so yeah, making a decent yet original new words is an accomplishment.

Its a word made by mumbles.

For example my name was just a whole slue of letters mixed togeather. It wasent untill last year that it was pointed out my MD name means master of desire.

And I chose my own name a very long time ago, long before MD, and only found out last month that it did actually exist, with a similar meaning none the less, already.
