faze: [19] Faze ‘disconcert’ is now mainly restricted to American English, but in fact it has an extensive prehistory stretching back to Anglo-Saxon times. It is a variant of feeze, a verb meaning ‘drive away’ or ‘alarm’ as well as ‘disconcert’ which survives in American English and in some British dialects, and which comes from Old English fēsian ‘drive away’.
faze (v.)
1830, American English, said to be a variant of Kentish dialect feeze "to frighten, alarm, discomfit" (mid-15c.), from Old English fesian, fysian "drive away, send forth, put to flight," from Proto-Germanic *fausjan (cognates: Swedish fösa "drive away," Norwegian föysa). Related: Fazed; fazing. Bartlett (1848) has it as to be in a feeze "in a state of excitement." There also is a nautical verb feaze "to unravel" (a rope), from 1560s.
