Leprechauns are mythical creatures from Irish folklore, often depicted as small, bearded men wearing green coats and buckled shoes, known for their mischievous nature and association with hidden pots of gold. Fairies, on the other hand, are supernatural beings found in various cultures' folklore, often portrayed as ethereal, magical creatures with the ability to fly and wield enchantments. Both leprechauns and fairies are deeply rooted in Celtic mythology and are associated with nature, mischief, and the supernatural. They are popular figures in stories and celebrations, especially around St. Patrick's Day.
In Irish Gaelic, the word for leprechaun is "leipreachán." This term is derived from the Old Irish "luchorpán," which means "small body." Leprechauns are often associated with Irish folklore and are typically depicted as mischievous little fairies.
W.B. Yeats wrote about fairies and ghosts in his poetry and plays. He was particularly interested in Irish folklore and mythology, incorporating elements of these supernatural beings into his work. However, he did not focus on leprechauns, trolls, or mermaids in the same way.
Two examples are leprechauns and clurichauns.
The original Irish name for these figures of folklore is "lobaircin," meaning "small-bodied fellow." Belief in leprechauns probably stems from Celtic belief in fairies, tiny men and women who could use their magical powers to serve good or evil. In Celtic folktales, leprechauns were cranky souls, responsible for mending the shoes of the other fairies. Though only minor figures in Celtic folklore, leprechauns were known for their trickery, which they often used to protect their much-fabled treasure.
