'herstory' always makes me cringe since it's such a blatant folk etymology.

From etymonline:

 

History: late 14c., "relation of incidents" (true or false), from Old French estoire, estorie "story; chronicle, history" (12c., Modern French histoire), from Latin historia "narrative of past events, account, tale, story," from Greek historia "a learning or knowing by inquiry; an account of one's inquiries, history, record, narrative," from historein "inquire," from histor "wise man, judge," from PIE *wid-tor-, from root *weid- "to know," literally "to see" 

Well language evolves Hun and also you need to put the etymology of history into context :staymad:
