Etymology
The word 'fan' originated in the late 17th century as a shortening of 'fanatic' or 'fancy', used to describe enthusiastic devotees of a particular interest. Over time, it expanded to refer to mechanical devices for producing a current of air. The modern usage of 'fan' encompasses both enthusiastic supporters and mechanical air-moving devices.
