单词 zipperhead
释义

zipperheadn.

Brit. /ˈzɪpəhɛd/, U.S. /ˈzɪpərˌ(h)ɛd/
Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: an element of uncertain origin, head n.1
Etymology: < a first element of uncertain origin (see below) + head n.1The first element perhaps shows zipper n., although if so the semantic motivation is unclear. Compare earlier uses as a nickname (of uncertain meaning or motivation):1945 Infantry Jrnl. (U.S.) Feb. 42/1 Johnny Zipperhead Hinkle was the best damn tiddly-wink pusher in the University.1947 Colonial Echo (College of William & Mary, Williamsburg, Virginia) 212 Jim Riley's shelter parties: Jo-Jo, the dog-faced boy, (Doll), ‘Zipperhead’ Anglum, E. (Lockbox) Harrison guarding his possessions.The nickname is perhaps partly after Zip the Pinhead , the name of a circus character with mental disabilities performed by W. H. Johnson (?1857–1926), although the chronology of attestation makes the connection less likely. With sense 2 compare slightly later zip n.4, which may derive from this word.
U.S. slang. derogatory.
1. A stupid person; an idiot.
