You could and it might work, or it might not. Depends on a lot of factors. Thing is, you are still engaging the fey in word games and try to outsmart them in their own games. Being blunt and telling them No, giving clear and unambiguous answers offers less attack ground for them.

I am not a big fan of raw oysters, but if you bake them in the oven with breadcrumbs, cheese and a sauce, they are delicious

A wedding ring shows that you are wed. Just like an engagement ring shows that your engaged. A wedding is an event, being wed is a change in status. The logic is sound. Confusion only enters the mix, because ‘being wed’ is less common as a phrase than ‘being married’.

Depending on the way the fey phrased the request you may either have insulted it, or broken a deal. If it asks to have your name and you answer with “yes, my name is <fake name>.” You have lied to it and broken a simple transaction. It may even be justified in using ever more harsh measures to extract your name from you, as it has a legitimate claim on it. At least that is the way I would play such a situation for the fey. For me the thing is that trying to outsmart them rarely works, because they know netter in which rules they operate than you do. A answer like "You may not have my name, but you can call me <fake name>. " Should work better in my opinion. Sorry for the wall of text btw. Just being bored out of my mind rn.

WTF is helix?

So, first of all a bee-ologist can only help you marginally, as bees are in the same order as wasps, hornets and ants but relatively far removed from them. Hornets (genus vespa) and classic wasps (genus vespula) on the other hand share the same subfamily vespinae and are both considered wasps. This was a nice short dive into wikipedia. As I am a crystallographer any real entomologist can feel free to correct me.
