Fehu is the reconstructed Proto-Germanic name for the rune ( ; ), found as the first rune in all futharks (runic alphabets starting with F, U, Þ, Ą, R, K), i.e. the Germanic Elder Futhark, the Anglo-Frisian Futhark and the Norse Younger Futhark, with continued use in the later medieval runes, early modern runes and Dalecarlian runes. It corresponds to the letter f in the Latin alphabet, but it can periodically shift into the sound value of v (compare "lea f " and "lea v es").
