Chilindrina

La Chilindrina (in Portuguese: Chiquinha) is the secondary antagonist of the Mexican sitcom El Chavo del Ocho. She is Don Ramón's daughter. "Precocious" is the best way to describe Don Ramón's intelligent and mischievous daughter, who likes to take advantage of her slow-witted friends to play pranks on them and take their toys or snacks. 
Her mother died during birth. Her father, Don Rámon raised her in the childhood years and her great-grandmother Doña Nieves. 
She usually wears a short green-patterned dress and a red sweater that is always twisted on the back. She has freckles, horn-rimmed eyeglasses, a missing front tooth, and two pigtails that are always uneven, one significantly higher than the other one, just like her socks. "Chilindrina" is the name of a typical Mexican bun, with chocolate sparkles on top, reminiscent of the character's freckles. In early episodes, La Chilindrina has longer ponytails which are cut by El Chavo. In most episodes, she is seen to have a crush on Chavo, and can be jealous when he's seen by Paty. Even though she's in love with El Chavo, sometimes she makes bad jokes of him, like in one episode when they play animal riddles and she hits El Chavo every time he fails, for which she ends up punished by Don Ramón. Sometimes, she even makes bad jokes about her own father, making him annoyed.
She is very attached to her father, often saying to him "Papito, lindo, mi amor!" and kissing him on the cheek. She hates Doña Florinda because the slaps the gives on her father, who usually after that she calls her: "Vieja pegona", "Vieja pegostiosa" o "Vieja chancluda". Like all the other child from the neighborhood, she calls Doña Clotilde "bruja". Quico also often makes jokes about her height due she's being small. She is portrayed by María Antonieta de las Nieves.
La Chilindrina was cut from the El Chavo animated series due to disputes with Roberto Gomez Bolaños (creator of all El Chavo characters) and Maria Antonieta de las Nieves (Chilindrina's portrayer) about who owned the rights to the character and if the character was allowed to be used publicly outside of El Chavo. María Antonieta de las Nieves was able to win a legal battle over Chespirito in 2003, which gave her permission to act as La Chilindrina in public, and granted her rights over the character. She was replaced by Popis (Phoebe) and Ñoño (Junior) in the animated series.
Chilindrina also stars in a movie called "La Chilindrina en Apuros", being the only character in the series to have a movie.
