dippiness

Flighty, foolish manner

Dippiness is the quality of being dippy—silly, scatterbrained, or charmingly foolish.

The word suggests harmless eccentricity rather than serious stupidity: Her dippiness was endearing rather than annoying.

It often carries affection, describing someone whose flightiness is more amusing than frustrating.
