If you have a question about the language, ask it and fellow 4channers might see it and answer it for you.

In English she is a hippy, in Japanese she is a ________ ?

Translators tell me Japanese just use the word "hippi" but I am looking for a word more Japanese in origin (as opposed to their pronunciation of an English word), so if there is a Japanese word for a free-spirited person or something along those lines I would like to know that. Preferably a word with positive connotations, not something that emphasizes the dirtiness of hippies.

Or, even better, a cute nickname for a female hippy, something that in English could be translated to hippy-girl or hippy-chick.

Also, would appreciate any names of female characters from Japanese popular culture that are hippies.
