leprechauns

Wee green cobblers

Leprechauns are small, bearded fairy creatures from Irish folklore, typically depicted as old men in green coats who guard pots of gold.

In popular culture, they've become mascots of Irishness, appearing on St.

Patrick's Day decorations and as the logo for Notre Dame athletics.

The singular is leprechaun: She dressed her kid as a leprechaun for Halloween.
