The green skin color for which Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West, is known hurts her with those who are superficial and intolerant of anything other than the sporting of a certain income level, look and way of being. For example, she has a difficult time with the cliquish, selective, snobbish popular people at Shiz University. Galinda, who becomes Glinda the Good Witch, is a rare in-crowd member who gets past the different appearance, look and way of being. Likewise, Elphaba's love interest goes in a lucky direction. For Fiyero likewise appreciates the difference. So Elphaba's skin color helpsher stand out as a unique person with an outlook and a personality that isn't mass-made. Consequently, she gains good friendship with Glinda, and love with her Prince.

What are the names of all four witches in 'The Wizard of Oz'?

According to the 1900 edition of the original book by author and Oz series originator Lyman Frank Baum, there are four witches in the land of Oz. Two witches are wicked, and remain the nameless Wicked Witches of the East and of the West. But their names are revealed decades later, when Gregory Maguire gives them the names Elphaba Thropp of the West, and Nessarose Thropp of the East.Two witches, in the lands of Oz, are good. The Good Witch of the South is ka Glinda. The Good Witch of the North remains nameless. Or does she? Later in the book, the Winged Monkeys tell the tale of Quelala and his wife Gayelette, a beautiful princess and powerful sorceress of the North. Is Gayelette a third good witch? Or is she the older Good Witch of the North in her youth? And to complicate things even further, according to the 1902/1903 stage version of the book, which also was authored by Baum, the Good Witch of the North is ka Locasta.In the movie, Glinda is the Good Witch of the North. The Wicked Witch of the East and the Wicked Witch of the West have no names in the movie version of "The Wizard of Oz."In Gregory McGuire's book Wicked, he names the Wicked Witch of the West Elphaba (from the author of the Wizard of Oz's initials, LFB) and the Wicked Witch of the East Nessarose.
