cutesier
Even more precious
Cutesier is the comparative form of cutesy, meaning more affectedly or excessively cute.
Where cute suggests genuine appeal, cutesy adds a layer of trying too hard, and cutesier takes it further: Each store on the block had a cutesier name than the last.
The word carries a faintly dismissive tone.
