You got we wondering. I decided that "tinker" was as is. Sure enough, from wiki,

"Tinker Bell was described by Barrie as a fairy who mended pots and kettles, like an actual tinker.[1] Her speech consists of the sounds of a tinkling bell, which is understandable only to those familiar with the language of the fairies."
