Fly in the term Flyweight means light/not heavy.
Instead of creating thousands of objects that share common attributes, and result in a situation where a large amount of memory or other resources are used, you can modify your classes to share multiple instances simultaneously by using some kind of reference to the shared object instead.
The best example to describe this is a document containing many words and sentences and made up of many letters. Rather than storing a new object for each individual letter describing its font, position, colour, padding and many other potential things. You can store just a lookup id of a character in a collection of some sort and then dynamically create the object with its proper formatting etc., only as you need to.
