What is a better name then ‘vampire’ for this group of fairies in my story written for fun?
These fairies have found that drinking a cup of human blood every day can extend life expectancy 200 years beyond normal. They will often capture humans and keep them in their castles, giving them a life of luxury, and draining small amounts of blood from them every day. They are very careful not to kill the human, and take good care of them, but think of them sort of like livestock.

You could always just come up with a name. I mean, like something completely random. Something that sounds like it should be in a fantasy book that fits the faeries. Come up with a made-up word that supposedly means something like “blood-drinker” or “immortal.” That’s what I would do.
i like:
Surgers ( when you get captured you were surged)
Flits
Vapers
Vampys
Parcies
Checknos
Many faeries drank blood, not just vampires. In folklore, some times even mermaids drank blood, so don’t think you’re finding a replacement name for vampires. . . I like the name darklings if they’re diminutive.
Hey, that’s a cool concept. I like it.
“Mosquitoes” might be a good lamenting nickname for the humans to call them. For their actual name, perhaps the “les connaisseurs du sang” would suffice. It’s French, and would indicate that they are experienced samplers and critics of blood, as if it were fine wine to them.
