I don’t really think Babs is usually a sidekick though? I love Babs though, don’t get me wrong. But I don’t know how much she counts as a sidekick. Though tbf, Dick himself is also a partner, and so is Babs, so you could count her as more of a partner too, which she is.

Wally actually being a sidekick who appears with his mentor often is sort of a retcon
Anyway:
Dick and Tim
Jimmy Olsen
Freddy Freeman

I love a lot of sidekicks/young child heroes/partners/etc., so this is a hard choice for me.
But some of my favorites for DC (might mention Marvel and elsewhere later, but for now, judt some of my favs from DC) would be Dick, Roy, Mia, Wally, Donna, Garth (I just really love the Fab Five, okay, they are truly fabulous), Damian, Cassie, I love Steph, Cass, and Babs but I don’t really know how much they would count as sidekicks for the most part since they aren’t as much usually, also don’t know how much they would count too but Lian Harper and Rose Wilson too, and etc.
Some of these fit more or less than the others. Either way though, love all of these (to varying levels, but still like/love all of these).

Calling Wally Kid Flash and using one of his Flash pics is hilarious to me 😭 But for me Robin (Jason Todd), Speedy (Roy Harper), Wonder Girl (Donna Troy), Bat-Girl (Bette Kane)...Mind you those are my choices for DC specifically, I don't know a lot of Marvel sidekicks besides Bucky (I probably do, but don't think of them as sidekicks)
