Glossary: Swifties

Swifties are the dedicated fans of Taylor Swift, the iconic American singer-songwriter. The name combines "Swift" with the affectionate suffix "-ie," and fans have proudly embraced this identity since at least 2010.

This term describes individuals who actively support and engage with Taylor's music, career, and personal life. Swifties create a vibrant community marked by loyalty, creativity, and a deep connection to Taylor's journey. Being a Swiftie means belonging to a passionate group that transforms admiration into unforgettable moments and lasting friendships. Taylor herself loves the term and has expressed her support in interviews since 2012. By 2017, the Swiftie community gained official recognition when Taylor's brand trademarked the term for commercial use. —Wikipedia
