  1. 1.

    A surname.

词源

From Old English feþer + stān + healh, equivalent to feather + stone + haugh. The irregular short pronunciation seems to derive from some combination of shortening of the longer pronunciation (/fɛðəstəʊnhɔː/ → /fɛstənhɔː/ → ?) and confusion with the unrelated surname Fanshawe, Fanshaw.
