plural of half is halves.

Most singular nouns ending in f, fe, ff are in plural form when s is added at the end.
Other singular nouns ending in f, fe, ff become plural by changing the f into ves. just like half, the f is removed and ves is placed, making it halves.
Other nouns have two plural forms, either s is added or ves is used as replacement.
