Fuddy-duddy
"Fuddy-duddy" (or "fuddy duddy" or "fuddy-dud") is a term for a person who is fussy while old-fashioned, traditionalist, conformist or conservative, sometimes almost to the point of eccentricity (behavior), eccentricity or geekiness. It is a slang term, mildly derogatory but sometimes affectionate too and can be used to describe someone with a zealous focus on order. Etymology "Fuddy-duddy" is considered a word based on Reduplication, duplication and may have originated as a fused phrase made to form a rhyming jingle. Duddy is similar to Daddy and may have caught on from children's rhyming. Douglas Harper of the ''Online Etymology Dictionary'' reports it from "1871, American English, of uncertain origin." However, ''Dictionary.com Unabridged'' compares it to a Northern English dialectal term: "1900-05; of obscure origin; compare dial. (Cumberland dialect, Cumberland) ''duddy-fuddiel'' a ragged fellow." Gary Martin states: "William Dickinson's A glossary of words and phrases pe ...
