==Other appearances in early literature==
According to MacKillop, "her mother is sometimes given as [[Flidais]], the woodland deity. In variant texts she is described as the wife of [[Eochaid Iúil]], one of [[Labraid Luathlám ar Claideb|Labraid's]] enemies vanquished by Cúchulainn".<ref name=MacKillop/>

The goddess or otherworldly woman, [[Niamh (mythology)|Niamh]] of the Golden Hair, is said to be a daughter of Manannán. As Niamh and Fand share some of the same characteristics, it is possible Niamh is also the daughter of Fand. Some sources mention another possible daughter of Manannán, [[Cliodna]], but as Manannán is known to have partnered with a number of goddesses and mortal women, her connection with Fand is unclear.{{Citation needed|date=November 2014}}
