Wednesday is originally a pale, dark-haired, grim-looking little girl with a fascination with death and the macabre. She never smiles. She is explicitly stated to be six years old in the series' pilot episode. In the 1960s television series, she is significantly more sweet-natured, although her favorite hobby is raising spiders; She is also a ballerina. Wednesday's favorite toy is her Marie Antoinette doll, which her brother guillotined. In one episode, she is shown to have several other headless dolls as well. She also paints pictures (including a picture of trees with human heads) and once writes a poem dedicated to her favorite pet spider, Homer. Wednesday is deceptively strong; she is able to bring her father down with a judo hold. In the 1991 film, she was revealed to have a deep interest in the Bermuda Triangle and an admiration for an ancestor (Great Aunt Calpurnia Addams) who was burned as a witch in 1706 .
Wednesday had a close kinship with the family's giant butler Lurch. In the TV series, it was revealed that her middle name is "Friday".[1] In the Spanish language version, her name is Merlina Addams (Latin America) or Miércoles Addams (Spain [Wednesday in Spanish]). In the Brazilian version (Portuguese), her name is Wandinha and in Italy her name is Mercoledì (Wednesday in Italian).
"Child of woe is wane and delicate...sensitive and on the quiet side, she loves the picnics and outings to the underground caverns...a solemn child, prim in dress and, on the whole, pretty lost...secretive and imaginitive, poetic, seems underprivileged and given to occasional tantrums...has six toes on one foot...[2] ”
— Charles Addams
In the Broadway musical, she is 18 years old and has short hair rather than the long braids in her other appearances. She is also in love with (and revealed to be engaged to) Lucas Beineke.
