daffiest
Maximally silly behaving
Daffiest is the superlative form of daffy, meaning the most silly, scatterbrained, or amusingly eccentric: She was the daffiest of the three sisters, always losing her keys and talking to houseplants.
The word carries affection rather than criticism—daffy people are endearingly foolish, not irritatingly so.
