She called her that because she deemed it the most appropriate name, and why "appropriate" it behooves to tell.
Unaffectedly pleased as a child at his quaint fancy, she answered merrily, "And so you hid among the roses to trap me, I suppose." "Indeed, I did not," he retorted indignantly. "I was forced to fly from a wicked Flibbertigibbet who seeks to torment me. I barely escaped with my life, and came into the garden to hide and recover from my fright.

Clumsy Freckles blushed with delight beneath her many beauty-spots at such promise of unwonted graciousness on the part of her chum, and wondered what had come over Flibbertigibbet lately.
In a short time she was back again. "I'm going to dance for you. Look downstairs when it is dark and you'll see the drawing-room lighted I'll dance near the windows."

"So thou hast betrayed me, Flibbertigibbet?" said the smith; "it shall be the worse for thee!" "Be who thou wilt," said Tressilian, "thou art in no danger from me, so thou tell me the meaning of this practice, and why thou drivest thy trade in this mysterious fashion."
