Etymology
Fanatically comes from fanatic, which goes back to the Latin fanum meaning 'temple' and was once used for people who were 'inspired by a god', so it came to mean very strong belief. That is why fanatically means showing 'too much enthusiasm' or extreme devotion, and the everyday word fan comes from the same root.
