Adorkable is slightly distinct from manic pixie dream girl in a few subtle ways
MPDGs are defined by the possibilities they represent for their beleaguered male counterparts, and are often characterized as somewhat "ethereal" or even aloof in addition to being quirky. "Adorkables" are just dorky and cute.
If Michael Cera were a girl, he'd surely be an "adorkable actress", but not a MPDG

Michael Cera's bass guitar playing character in that one horrible comic book adaptation film chased an MPDG?
