Definition
Foolish, silly, or lacking sense; characterized by scatterbrained or frivolous thinking.
Etymology
Adjectival form of 'featherhead,' created by adding the -ed suffix. Parallel construction to 'featherbrained.'
Kelly Says
It's interesting that English created multiple insulting 'feather-' compounds with the same meaning—'featherbrained' and 'featherheaded' are nearly synonymous, showing how productive word-formation rules are.
