Main four
Wubbzy
Wubbzy
His personality is just as bouncy as his tail.
- Voice actor: Grey DeLisle (US), Janet James (UK)
The titular main character of the show. According to the show's bible, he represents the pure child who solves problems with his child-like simplicity and sees the world through untainted eyes. He loves to play with his friends. He is also the only one of the main four with a tail.
- Affectionate Nickname: "Little buddy" and "Wubbster" are the two nicknames Widget would sometimes call Wubbzy. In the UK version, she calls him "little Wubbzy" instead of "little buddy".
- Attack of the 50-Foot Wubbzy: In Wubbzy's Big Idea.
- Breaking the Fourth Wall: He sometimes talks to the audience.
- Cartoony Tail: He has a prehensile, apparently shock-absorbent tail that either works as an extra hand or a bouncy spring. It is also mentioned a bunch of times to be highly flexible."Wubbzy lives in a tree, he likes to play play play! He's got a bendy tail and he likes it that way!"
- Character Catchphrase: "Wow" is his favorite word, as he said it a lot of times, usually as a greetingnote or a form of amazement. He also used the word to greet the viewers in the Theme Tune.
- Cheerful Child: He is very cheery and playful.
- Cute Giant: He becomes this near the end of Wubbzy's Big Idea.
- Does Not Like Spam: According to a rare interview, he isn't old enough to like brussel sprouts.

- Keet: See Cheerful Child above.
- Large Ham: Right when he introduces himself during the Theme Tune, you know he's gonna exhibit this.
- Me's a Crowd: Too Many Wubbzy's
- Nice Guy: He's very sweet and kindhearted to others.
- Partially Civilized Animal: He was this in The Tail of Flopsy, Mopsy, and Ted, though back then he was Mopsy.
- Picky Eater: In "Too Much of a Doodle Thing", where he only wants to eat doodleberries and dismisses his friends' suggestions to eat other foods when he's unable to find anymore. Only at the climax when he accidentally grows doodleberry bushes all over Wuzzleburg with Daizy's magic grow spray does he finally decide that he's sick of eating doodleberries.
- Prehensile Tail: His tail can do including but not limited to:
- Wrapping around objects
- Being used as a Spring Coil to bounce himself a la Tigger.
- And it's even focused on in A Tale of Tails.

- Tiny Guy, Huge Girl: The Tiny Guy to Widget's and (to a lesser extent) Daizy's Huge Girl.
- Trademark Favorite Food: Anything that has doodleberries in it. He also likes grapity-grape juice.

Widget
Widget
When at first she doesn't succeed, she builds something bigger.
- Voice actor: Lara Jill Miller (US), Julie-Ann Dean (UK)
The Gadgeteer Genius with rabbit-like ears and the owner of her own fix-it shop. Widget seems to be the "go-do-it-now" type of person. When she sees a problem she can solve, she either introduces her friends to a machine she designed for such situation, or she sets to work on building a new invention. However, no matter how simple the problem may be, she tends to build some sort of overly-complicated invention. She speaks with a Southern accent.
- Advanced Tech 2000: Widget names her inventions with the number "3000" tacked onto the end.
- Character Catchphrase: When she sees a problem she can solve, she says "No problemo!", and she has a variant ("Big problemo") when she realizes she underestimated the situation. There's also "That's not supposed to happen"/"That wasn't supposed to happen", said when her machines fail.
- Complexity Addiction: No matter how simple the task may be, Widget will set to work on (or introduce, if she's already built it) a ridiculously complex gadget which tends to fail quite often.

- Funny Animal: Going by the long ears, she kind of looks like a rabbit.
- Gadgeteer Genius: Her personality. Her part of the show's Theme Tune even explains this.
- The Ghost: Not her, but she has a cousin named Ratchet who was only ever mentioned in "Once Upon a Wubbzy", but was never shown.
- Iconic Item: And that would be a wiggle wrench. In fact, her wiggle wrench is a major story element in Where's My Wiggle Wrench?.
- Inexplicably Tailless: Played straight in the series, but subverted when she was first designed as "Flopsy"note .
- Pink Is Feminine: She is pink.
- Robot Me: In Gidget the Super-Robot, Widget makes a robot twin.

- Tomboy with a Girly Streak: Despite the fact that she likes to invent gadgets, she also likes girly things such as ballet.
- White Bunny: Colorfully averted.
Walden
Walden
He finds great philosophy in everything from astronomy to tarot card readings!
- Voice actor: Carlos Alazraqui (US), Wayne Forester (UK)
The quirky Omnidisciplinary Scientist. Walden has a passionate curiosity for everything and views the world in a unique way. He has been shown to help his friends by reading books and using science, though the Theme Tune implies he knows about art as well.
- Adaptational Jerkass: In the Arabic dub, he's more of a selfish, cranky jerk.

- Funny Animal: It is unclear what Walden is even meant to be, though The Other Wiki says that he is a bear.
- Half-Dressed Cartoon Animal: He normally does not wear any pants.
- Nerd Glasses: He has a large, thick, round pair and, needless to say, they match his nerdy personality.

- The Smart Guy
- Smart People Speak the Queen's English: Walden speaks with a British accent, and is the only character in the show to have a non-American accent. In addition, his voice sounds very similar to Scooter (surfer fish), who even shares the same voice actor.

Daizy
Wubbzy's more recent neighbor.
- Voice actor: Tara Strong (US), Lynn Cleckner (UK)
A dog-like Girly Girl introduced in season 2 with it's premiere, Who's That Girl?. She is considered to be Wubbzy's opposite, being smart, patient, graceful, and girly.
- Adaptational Early Appearance: She appears as a playable character in the Attack of the 50-Foot Fleegle V.Smile game, but she wasn't in the actual episode because she wasn't introduced yetnote .

- Caring Gardener: She loves to plant flowers. Her gardening talent was a focus in Daizy's Purple Thumb.
- Character Catchphrase: "Lavender lollipops!"
- Cousin Oliver: Non-aging example. Daizy does not appear in the first season; in episodes after her introduction she is hilariously wedged into the Theme Tune by changing the line "and when they are together the fun never ends" to "and when they're with Daizy the fun never ends".
- Dub Name Change: In the Arabic dub, she's renamed "Dee Dee."
- Floral Theme Naming: Her name is just "daisy" but with a z instead of an s.

- Genki Girl: She's always very cheerful and energetic.
- Girlish Pigtails: She has these.

- Never Bareheaded: Daizy usually doesn't change her hair from the normal pigtails (except for that one time in Meet the Wuzzles, though she was not seen with her hair down).

- Odd Name Out: She is the only main character whose name does not start with a W.
- Pink Is Feminine: Most of her outfits, including the ballerina dress she normally wears, are pink in color.
- Promotion to Opening Titles: The theme song is rewritten slightly to add a line to introduce her and has a scene changed to add her with an addition in the ending of the theme, starting in the second season.

"Even though i'm back to normal, i still like you a lot!"
- Signature Headgear: A flower holding up each pigtail and a pink bow for her normal outfit.

The Kooky Kid
No points awarded to anyone guessing what he does.

The Wubb Girlz
The Wubb Girlz (Shine, Sparkle, and Shimmer)
L-R: Shimmer, Shine, and Sparkle

Shine
Sparkle
Shimmer
Snappity-Snap Fish
A character who serves as the main antagonist of the 2007 Flash game, Wubbzy's Underwater Adventure. A nefarious guppy with a hatred for Wuzzlantis, he petrifies the populace of the underwater city, leaving it forgotten for years.
- A Dog Named "Dog": The term “Snappity-Snap Fish” seems to be the name of the species of fish he is, and he’s exclusively referred by that.
- Big Bad: Is the cause of Wuzzlantis’ becoming forgotten in the first place.
- Fantastic Racism: Seems to be his motive for attacking Wuzzlantis from what little we know about him.
- Final Boss: He appears at the end of the game as its final boss, though considering how he’s the only boss in the game he’s practically the first boss by technicality.
- Green and Mean: He’s a green fish that turned an entire population into stone.
- Red Eyes, Take Warning: His single eye is red, and he essentially killed an entire city’s worth of people. Not the kind of guy you’d be willing to play poker with on Sundays.
- Red Is Violent: He dons a red suit and he uses it to turn dozens into stone statues, and Wuzzlantis itself has been the site of many fish bones after he took over.
- The Napoleon: Without his gear, he’s a hilariously tiny fish, something that he takes major embarrassment in.
- Vile Villain, Saccharine Show: Notably, his evil plan is rather grim for a lighthearted cartoon like this, effectively killing an entire population and leaving a city abandoned for years. Downplayed, as his defeat is presented comically.
