shrimpiest

Smallest of all

Shrimpiest is the superlative of shrimpy, meaning the smallest or most diminutive of a group.

Like shrimp used as slang for a small person, shrimpiest carries a mildly teasing tone: He was the shrimpiest kid on the basketball team.

The word is informal and often affectionate rather than cruel.
