I'm also sick of the Fayre/Fay/Faerie/Fairy/Sidhe/Seelie/etc.

Oh, me too. That was one of my biggest 'but why?' moments when reading Death of the Necromancer, which I mostly quite enjoyed -- it wasn't just that the f(a)(e)(r)(y|ie) are a bit tiresome by now, they felt sort of unnecessary. Like fantasy setpieces rather than a part of the worldbuilding.

Admittedly, in Death, they played quite a minor role (which probably didn't help the impression).
