In the 1953 Disney film 'Peter Pan', what is the name of the fairy?

In Disney's 1953 Peter Pan, the fairy is named Tinker Bell.

Tinker Bell is Peter Pan's loyal companion and a pixie from Never Land. She does not speak in the animated film; instead, her bell-like sounds and gestures are interpreted for the audience by Peter. Her jealousy of Wendy becomes an important part of the story and allows Captain Hook to manipulate her.

The character originated in J. M. Barrie's 1904 play Peter Pan and later appeared in the 1911 novel Peter and Wendy. Disney's version transformed her into one of the company's most recognizable characters, with her green dress, wings, blonde bun, and expressive personality.

Merryweather, Flora, and Fauna are not Peter Pan characters. They are fairies from Disney's 1959 film Sleeping Beauty, where they help protect Princess Aurora. That distinction is a frequent source of confusion when identifying Disney's fairy characters.
