Flibbertigibbet. It means silly person, and from what I’ve read in most instances it refers to women. I found it in a rhyming dictionary. It doesn’t really describe me at all, especially since I’m not a woman; I just like the word so goddamn much (that and crux, but I don’t get to use crux much). Personally, I think the crux of the matter is that with over 500,000 words in the English language it seems so sad to limit yourself to just one.
