The quality or state of being inclined to follow fads; the tendency to adopt trends enthusiastically but temporarily.
Derived from 'faddy' + '-ness' suffix, which converts adjectives into abstract nouns. The '-ness' ending has Germanic roots and creates nouns expressing qualities or states.
Faddiness might be one of those personality traits that's actually culturally bound—societies with more consumer choice and faster media cycles show higher 'faddiness scores,' suggesting it's partly environmental rather than purely personal.
