Actually, "blower's daughter" is the term itself. It is an old term used to refer to a young girl who is free-spirited and unbound. "Blower" is another old term used to describe musicians who play wind instruments, like the flute. It's not commonly used now. Ex: She's a blower's daughter. She'll break your heart. Ex: My grandfather told me he once fell in lover with a blower's daughter.
