Wendy Corduroy

Wendy Blerble Corduroy is a tall, laid-back teenager with a part-time job at the Mystery Shack. Fun-loving and rebellious, she frequently shirks responsibility for activities she finds more enjoyable, such as hanging out with her rambunctious friends or going on adventures with Dipper and Mabel Pines. Wendy represents the ice pack on the Zodiac, due to her cool demeanor in the face of danger.

Trivia

 * The name "Wendy" was first used in J. M. Barrie's play, "Peter Pan." It comes from "Fwendy," a mispronunciation of "Friend," a nickname Barrie was given.
 * Her surname, "Corduroy," is a ribbed type of cotton fabric.
 * Wendy's character was initially inspired by a real life person, but has also received inspiration from several other real life people. Alex Hirsch has said that "the first girl who ever talked to [him] when [he] was around eleven inspired Wendy." He also said that to create Wendy, he tried to channel the "cool energy" of many people he has known who are way cooler than him into one character. Many people who worked on Gravity Falls contributed with thoughts about the coolest people they know.
 * However, Alex's ideas inspired only her personality, because Wendy's appearance changed a lot during the series' production process, as can be seen comparing the differences of final Wendy to the concept and production artwork, and to her appearance at the end of the unaired pilot.
 * Wendy's mother is "no longer with her." This was confirmed in the latest Gravity Falls AMA (Alex Hirsch's Reddit with Bill Cipher), even quoting lyrics from "Stacy's Mom" by Fountains of Wayne.
 * Wendy stopped believing in unicorns when she was five years old, prior to actually meeting and later fighting one.
 * Wendy's favorite color is "flannel."
 * Bill thinks Wendy is a pushover.
 * Wendy represents the open bag of ice on the Zodiac. While not a literal representation of the symbol, she nonetheless embodies "someone who is cool in the face of danger." In the Gravity Falls: Journal 3 book, Ford also encounters her while she is carrying a bag of ice.
 * Wendy has always wanted to glue a plunger to the principal of Gravity Falls High's head.
 * Wendy had never felt happy going to work before she arrived at the Shack seeking shelter at the end of "Weirdmageddon 2: Escape From Reality", which isn't really going to work.
 * Wendy has always wanted to drive a tank.
 * In Dipper's and Mabel's Guide to Mystery and Nonstop Fun! it is revealed that Wendy wants to live in Portland.
 * Wendy's voice actor Linda Cardellini also portrays a brief live-action version of her. In "Weirdmageddon Part 1," a live-action version of her and Dipper appear when they are going through one of Bill Cipher's weirdness bubbles.
 * In "Weirdmageddon Part 1," Wendy says she can never remember Toby Determined’s name, though she does, in fact, remember it shortly after.
