Flounder and Scuttle's friend (5)

I believe the answer is:

ariel

(Other definitions for ariel that I've seen before include "spirit of Shakespeare" , "Shakespearian sprite - Uranus satellite - gazelle" , "Moulding round top of wall" , "Shakespearian spirit" , "Heavenly body" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
