"Under Hill"

story "The Rule of Names" calls himself Mr. Under-
hill before his disguise is breached. Before that,
he poses as a somewhat ineffectual wizard.

'Under Hill' is an old. old euphemism
for what's often called 'Faerie'
('faerie' is also a euphemism; this is
the land of the Dead we are talking
about (see my post with the subject
'Mound Dwellers')).
The main fairy in John Crowley's
"Little, Big" is called Mrs. Underhill.
