In folklore from Ireland, the mermaid is known as a Merrow, and can shapeshift from mermaid to human form by using a magical red feathered cap. If the cap is lost or stolen, the merrow must remain forever in human form, never to return to their underwater world. The females are beautiful, however the males are hideously ugly (they have green skin, teeth and hair!). This probably accounts for why so many of the females choose to take human form and marry human men!
In the folklore of Wales, the merman, Morgan, lives in the lakes keeping watch for wandering children (which he likes to abduct!). Most likely, tales of Morgan the Merman were used to frighten children to keep them from wandering unattended around dangerous waters.
In ancient folklore from Greece and Rome are the equally famous sirens, which are frequently depicted as mermaids, and known to lure sailors to their death with their beautiful singing. However the siren was originally half woman and half bird and not a sea creature at all! The famous poet, Homer, wrote of them in his story of Odysseus (who was the only man to ever hear the song of the Siren and live to tell about it).
