LORE & ORIGIN

A blend of "twin" and "incest." Wiktionary dates the earliest citation to 1985 (Joseph Hansen, A Smile in His Lifetime). The "-cest" ending is a fandom pattern also seen in Wincest (Winchester + incest). The shipping-glossary.carrd.co glossary defines it as a ship between twin siblings.
