The fontconfig manual describes the syntax for fontconfig names.

Ah, you need to tell xfd that you're using a fontconfig name rather than a
core font name. Try:
$ xfd -fa 'fixed-10'
If you want to see the 6x13 font ('fixed' in the default core font list):
$ xfd -fa fixed:pixelsize=13:width=semicondensed
