There are several words meaning "fair" in Latin, some of which are:

  • Serenus -- calm, serene -- fair as in 'fair weather'
  • Iustus -- just, lawful, proper -- fair as in 'a fair trial'
  • Aequus -- level, even, equal -- fair as in 'fair treatment'
  • Candidus -- radiant, unclouded, pale -- fair as in 'fair skin'
  • Satis -- enough, adequately, sufficiently -- fair as in 'a fair amount'
  • Pulcher or Formosus -- pretty, beautiful, handsome -- fair as in 'a fair maiden'
  • Flavus -- yellow -- fair as in 'fair hair'

And that's just the adjective. There's also the noun "fair", meaning a public celebration or a public gathering for buying and selling goods. This is feriae or mercatus in Latin.
