Foundling
The Spy Master identified the Timeless Child, who had been adopted by the first Tecteun, as a foundling. As the second Tecteun had the child's ability to regenerate gene spliced into the Time Lords, the Master observed that "the foundling had become the founder".

Davina McCall referred to Ruby Sunday, who was abandoned by her mother as a baby, as a "foundling" whilst interviewing her for her show. McCall asked Ruby midway through if it was a term that she was okay with, acknowledging that some people found it to be "old-fashioned". Ruby affirmed that she did not mind the term, as that was what she was - she was "foundled". (TV: The Church on Ruby Road [+]Loading...["The Church on Ruby Road (TV story)"]).
