The origin is uncertain. One theory is that the name comes from the traditional mourning attire worn by widows in the past, which often included a black veil that covered the forehead and created a similar point at the center. Another theory suggests that the term comes from the legend of the vampire, as vampires in popular culture are often depicted with a pointed hairline. Regardless of its origins, the term "widow's peak" has been used since the mid-19th century to describe this distinctive hairline, and it has been popularized in literature and film through characters such as Count Dracula and Lily Munster.
