How do you say Sleepy (from Snow White) in German?

Question

I looked up how to say Sleepy (the character from Snow White and the Seven Dwarves), and I found the word "Schlafmütz". Is this correct?

If not, what exactly does "Schlafmütz" mean?

Answer 1

1.Schlafmütz is correct

2.Schlafmütz is a guy who sleeps a lot, lazy man, day in day out in bed and sleeping.

Answer 2

The corretct word is "Schlafmütze". A "Schlafmütze" is a cap they used in Germany in former time ( and some even today) when they were asleep.

Here you see The german national symbol the "Deutscher Michel" with his "Schlafmütze".

From there devloped the meaning that a person beeing always asleep is called "Schlafmütze"
