'fairly-held' originates from the English word 'fairly,' which means 'in a fair manner,' and 'held,' the past participle of 'hold,' meaning 'to conduct or organize.'

'fairly' evolved from the Old English word 'fægerlice,' meaning 'beautifully' or 'pleasantly,' and 'held' from the Old English 'healdan,' meaning 'to hold or keep.'

Initially, 'fairly' meant 'beautifully,' but over time it evolved to mean 'justly' or 'equitably,' while 'held' has maintained its meaning of 'conducted or organized.'
