Pearl is considered not a human because she does not have a heavenly father, and her actions give reason to believe she is a demon child.

In "The Scarlet Letter," Pearl is referred to as a "little elf" because she is often portrayed as mischievous, unpredictable, and almost otherworldly in her behavior. The term "elf" suggests her mysterious and ethereal nature, adding to her characterization as a unique and unconventional child. Additionally, this label may also be a commentary on her ability to bring both joy and trouble to those around her, much like the mythical creatures she is associated with.
