Tinkerbell is the animated character from the television show, The Little Mermaid. She is a mermaid which means she is half fish, half woman. She was originally created as the mermaid Ariel before she morphed into a man due to her power of love.
Tink is the real deal and her original name should be changed. Tinkerbell’s husband was originally named Triton, and is a giant reptilian sea creature. The “c” in “Tink” is pronounced as a “z” in his case.
With the release of new seasons of The Little Mermaid, Tinkerbell is changing, a little bit at a time. Her husband is now the Triton as we know him, and she will now be the Tinkerbell. He will be a sea beast with the ability to transform into a different Tink, and all his former abilities, into new ones. He’ll change into a new kind of Tink, at first a man with a short temper, and then a wise older man.
If a couple were to ask you the name of this Tink you would say “Tinkerbell.” If you were going to choose a different name, why not be able to choose one that’s unique. For the most part the new Tinkerbells name is a nod to the song, “I’m A Beloved Man (Of A Girl). It is also the name of a song by the rock band of the same name.
Can’t choose just one song, we all have different choices! And if you are like anyone else, the best name you can come up with is pretty much a tossup. Tinker Bells name is a nod to a song, as sung by the rock band, Tinders, We Are the Tinkers, and her husband’s name and title are a play on Tinker, the mythical water spirit of the British countryside.
