Best Answer

Elphaba Thropp is thought to be wicked in the book "Wicked" by Gregory Maguire (b. June 9, 1954).

Specifically, Elphaba is born with green skin and is not her mother's favorite child. She is mistreated and misunderstood throughout life. As is the case with many people, Elphaba does likeable things - such as taking care of her younger sister Nessarose - and unlikeable things. It is the latter that people choose to remember and that influence Elphaba's overall undeserved reputation as the Wicked Witch of the West.
