Etymology
From Old English *fyxen, from Proto-West Germanic *fuhsini, from Proto-Germanic *fuhsinī, akin to German Füchsin. Alternatively, from the Old English adjective fyxen (“of the fox”), as in the phrase fixen hȳd (“fox skin”; compare foxen fox). Equivalent to fox + -ene (feminine suffix). See: Old English Nouns '
*fyxen', German Nouns '
Füchsin'.
