The answer
GENIE
What genie means
A magical being in folklore and fantasy who grants wishes and possesses supernatural powers, often depicted as living in a lamp and summoned by rubbing or opening it.
Where the word comes from
From French *génie*, borrowed from Latin *genius*, meaning an attendant spirit or innate talent. The Latin word originally denoted a tutelary deity or protective spirit assigned to a person at birth. When European translators rendered the Arabic *jinn* (a supernatural being made of fire in Islamic folklore) into European languages, they adopted the Latin *genius* as the closest equivalent, creating the magical wish-granting figure familiar in European folklore.
