Have you ever used the word, "puckish" to describe a woman?

No, but I don't think I've ever used it to describe a man, other human being, cat, or small furry creature from Alpha Centauri either.

No but I've seen it to describe characters in movies like, say, the girl in Amelie. Manic pixie dream girl with particular haircut...

Ooh, interesting question! I've never used it. Nor has anyone ever used it to describe me, tho' i have been called "elfin".

Hrm. I think so. I also think I've probably used it more often to describe a man.

I've used it for adolescent girls, occasionally.
