tinker bell

Glowing pixie companion

Tinker Bell is the fairy companion to Peter Pan in J.M.

Barrie's stories, known for her jealousy, her pixie dust that enables flight, and her tiny size.

The name has become shorthand for any diminutive, spritely female figure, sometimes used dismissively: She's not some Tinker Bell who's going to sprinkle magic dust on your problems. (Lowercase tinkerbell occasionally describes fairy-like qualities or delicate things.)
