soppy date
4. British slang. Chiefly as an affectionate term of reproof: a foolish or comical person, esp. in soppy date. [It is not certain that this shows the same word. Compare dateless adj. 4, although the semantic overlap may be accidental.
Quot. 1914 is from a passage in which a Frenchman becomes better acquainted with two young women in London; date is apparently intended as a term belonging to their vocabulary rather than to his. (This appears to be supported by quot. 1923, from a glossary of English slang for French speakers.)]
ΘΚΠ
the mind > mental capacity > lack of understanding > stupid, foolish, or inadequate person > foolish person, fool > [noun] > giddy, light-headed
