Earliest documented use: 1844. The adjectival form is pecksniffian.</p><p>NOTES:<br>Pecksniff sounds like a man who moralizes in public and misbehaves in private. Which, spoiler alert, he does.</p><p>But Pecksniff, seriously? If a character’s name is Pecksniff, his moral downfall feels less like a character arc and more like a destiny. With a name like this, you have given them no hope. They’re doomed from page one. See nominative determinism.</p><p>It’s not just Dickens. The Harry Potter world has Voldemort (from French vol de mort: flight of death), 101 Dalmatians has Cruella de Vil, and so on. Heroes, on the other hand, get regular names like Oliver Twist or Harry Potter.</p>
