Best Answer

Aileen Quinn.

in the musical it is Annie bennette

In the James Whitcomb Riley poem, she was originally called "Little Orphant Allie" - as in the short form for "Alice." However, in a later printing of the poem, a typesetter misread the handwriting and changed the "Allie" to "Annie." Riley at first complained, but his publisher stated that the edition was selling well - so the name remained "Annie."

Riley's "Annie" - actually "Allie - was a real person. Her real name was Mary Alice Smith. She was born in Union County, Indiana in 1850. She was an orphan girl who lived at his home during the Civil War. She did chores in exchange for her board and keep. You can visit the James Whitcomb Riley Home in Greenfield, IN and see where Allie slept, and the cubby hole, and press that is mentioned in the Riley poem.
