Nonsense or trivial matters; a trifling or fussy concern.
Combination of 'fiddle' (trivial activity) with suffix '-come' (an archaic combining form for 'arrival' or 'thing'). Appears in 19th-century English as a dismissive term.
This is a rare word that shows how Victorians loved creating compound words to mock fussiness—'fiddlecome' sounds like something that arrives at your door uninvited and wastes your time.
