weirdie

Peculiar person, informally

A weirdie is a strange or eccentric person—someone whose behavior or appearance marks them as odd.

The word is informal and slightly playful, less harsh than calling someone a freak: The neighborhood kids thought the old man in the corner house was a weirdie.

Also spelled weirdy.
