Fam is derived from the word "Family" but is not limited to that as people can call friends Fam and not just family members.
Guy 1: Hey Fam how are you?
Guy 2: I'm good fam how bout you?
Short for the word "family"
or the word to use when you're in a good friendship with someone.
A word which used as a way of shortening the word family, often used to define one's closest friends. Since one's closest friends are typically seen as comparable to a family, this is a household term many know.
What many don't know is that the term was actually defined by Shakespeare in his original draft of Romeo and Juliet. "Juliet, I need you to flower my pump fam." (Shakespeare 69)
Fam, I think you lit the Christmas tree on fire.
