The Magic of Oz

character

The Tin Woodman

also Nick Chopper · Emperor of the Winkies

A woodman of tin, found rusted still in the forest and freed with an oil-can, who wishes for a heart.

First named in The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, ch. 5 — the earliest chapter using this name. A thing may appear before it is called this: Baum writes “the Winkies” long before anyone writes “Winkie Country”.
