Periwinkle, often shortened to Peri, is a frost-talent fairy from the Winter Woods and Tinker Bell's younger twin sister. She appeared in Secret of the Wings, and is one of the two protagonists, and makes a minor appearance in The Pirate Fairy.
Background. Periwinkle, better known as Peri, is Tinkerbell's fraternal twin in the Disney Fairies franchise. They were born from the same first laugh of a baby and share many personality traits. She is a frost-talent fairy, living in the Winter Woods part of Pixie Hollow.
After Peter's memory is restored, Tinker Bell "wishes" herself into a human-size woman to share a kiss with Peter. After Peter returns to London, Tinker Bell appears to him one last time on the Peter Pan statue in Kensington Gardens to tell him that she will always love him.

Who was Tinker Bell's love?
In Barrie's play and his novel, Tink tried to communicate her love to Peter, but it was unrequited, too mature an emotion for the boy who never wanted to grow up. The implied romance was more emphatic, but the visual medium of the animated movie allowed it to be more visceral.
As she gave Tinker Bell her name, Queen Clarion can be considered Tinker Bell's mother, and possibly to many other fairies if Queen Clarion gave them their names also. The word "clarion" means the loud and clear sound of a trumpet. The nickname "reina" is the Spanish word for Queen.
Another winter fairy rushes into the room, and Tink notices her wings sparkling like her own. Tink and the other fairy, Periwinkle, notice each other and it is revealed that they were born from the same laugh, making them sisters.
The reasons for removing Tinker Bell and Esmeralda from the Disney Princesses franchise might seem obvious as they weren't born nor married royal and they weren't the leads of their movies, but they actually go beyond that. Everything is a business, and the Disney Princesses world is one.
Lizzie, age nine, is raised by her father who is a very busy, serious-minded man. No explanation is given as to what happened to her mom, but Lizzie's favorite thing to dream about is fairies.
Tinker Bell's age is never revealed in Peter Pan. Tinker Bell is a fairy, not a human, so readers can infer that she may be very ancient. However, Tinker Bell is not immortal. Readers learn that she dies in the novel, and that Peter forgets her.
Tinker Bell was not in love with Peter Pan in the usual sense of the phrase. As a fairy, Tinker Bell was highly dedicated to Peter and jealous of other people who occupied his attention. Barrie implies that most girls who come into contact with Peter are romantically interested in him.
One of them [Lord Milori] broke a wing, for which there is no cure. And from that day, Queen Clarion decreed that fairies must never again cross the border, and Lord Milori agreed, that their worlds, should forever remain apart.
Fairies in the Tinker Bell series are also called "pixies" at times. Never Fairies seem to be more predominantly female. It's also possible that their genders are purely atheistic, since they don't reproduce via traditional means.
Celeste Tate Bell (she/they) is the daughter of Tinkerbell and a Roybel at Ever After High. She is destined to become the next Tinkerbell in the story Peter and Wendy. Celeste chose to be a Roybel because she has accepted to follow her destiny, but she still has other dreams to explore outside of Neverland.
The new Peter Pan changes an original line when Peter comments that women talk too much, suggesting he likes that Tinkerbell is silent. This wouldn't be accepted in today's society, which is why Peter Pan & Wendy corrected the fairy, making it so she doesn't perpetuate outdated stereotypes about women.
The birth of Tinker Bell. The film Tinker Bell tells of Tink's history; long before she met Peter Pan. According to the film, Tinker Bell was born from a baby's first laugh and a white dandelion seed. She arrives in Pixie Hollow, located in Neverland.
It is hinted that Wendy may have romantic feelings for Peter, but unrequited because of his inability to love. In the original novel, Peter later befriends Wendy's daughter Jane (and her subsequent daughter Margaret), and it is implied that this pattern will go on forever.
It boils down to jealousy. Tinkerbell is Peter's best friend, confidant, partner-in-crime, and pretty much every version of the story implies she feels romantically towards him. Because of that, she views Wendy as a rival for Peter's romantic affections and wants her out of the picture so she can have Peter to herself.
She has been featured in television commercials and show opening credits sprinkling pixie dust with a wand in order to shower a magical feeling over various other Disney personalities, though the 1953 animated version of Tinker Bell never actually used a wand.
