We even have pictures of the Seelie Court bard.

Are you looking for only 5e/D&D references? Or historical folklore references? Here's a good list I used when I did Twilight Fables a few years ago [..]

First and foremost, I am looking for Forgotten Realms references, then other D&D references, and falling back on mythology and folklore. Thank you for the suggested references.

Depending on what you are looking for, Dfrpg: our world might be really helpful. It's going to tell you about the (un)seelie courts and how they function internally as well as between each other and nonfey in the Dresden files novels but they draw from & extend the myths.

Don't expect to find it useful for an Irish myth college course or something, but I'm reasonably certain that the 2024 mm brings up the Summer/winter courts because Jim butcher has spent so many years developing them with care to consistency through his novels. The fact that those novels are also best selling urban fantasy books that pretty much created the modern urban fantasy genre makes it a solid source with reasonable odds some of your players are already familiar with.

Plus I think it's got some creative commons license stuff if you aren't being too over the top.

I have taken a further look at the Seelie Court, and I can expand on the Forgotten Realms wiki a little:

The following can be included in the Outer Court, if so desired: Aerdrie Faenya, Hyrsam, Lurue, Morwel, Puck (though Sqeulaiche fills this role in the Inner Court, and may well be synonymous with Puck), Rellavar Danuvien, and Tapann (though he should probably be synonymous with Damh).

Likewise Erevan Ilesere appears to be Sqeulaiche, the Seelie Court jester.

Eilistraee would also be welcome among the Seelie Court, and likely has a few eladrin, pixie, and sprite followers.

This isn't a sufficient extension right now to justify a full Seelie Court post from me.

Yes. I did see a few good references to relevant Archfey in the Dresden Files. I don't think that I borrowed anything from there directly, but some of the mythological references were helpful to follow up on.
