HAVEN
What haven means
A place of safety or refuge where someone can escape from danger, trouble, or unwanted attention.
Where the word comes from
From Old English hæfn, borrowed from Old Norse höfn, both referring to a sheltered port or bay. The Norse term likely comes from a root meaning "to hold" or "to contain," reflecting how a harbor holds and protects ships. The word entered English during the Viking period and replaced an earlier Latin-derived term, becoming the standard word for a safe anchorage.
