Fermions were named by Paul Dirac in 1947 after the Italian physicist Enrico Fermi. They obey the Pauli exclusion principle.

Not sure really, although i know Richard Feynman referred to them as Ferme particles, several times in his now-famous lectures on physics, instead of fermions, although at other times he does use the term fermion. I think at that time, around 1961-63, my guess is that the term was being used but hadnt caught on fully yet...or perhaps it was Feynman during these lectures that coined the term, but these are just guesses sorry!
