Etymology of DAFFIER

The word "daffier" is derived from the adjective "daffy". The term "daffy" originated in the early 19th century, and it is believed to be a variation of the word "doff", which means to remove or take off. In this context, "daffy" initially referred to someone who was off their head or acting strangely, as if they had removed their own hat, figuratively speaking. The suffix "-ier" is added to create the comparative form, giving us "daffier", which means more daffy or crazier.
