pejorative-languagesingle-word-requests

I can't explain this perfectly, but what do you call a girl/boy who talks with unnecessary style, childish whim, and extra gestures (like small kids sometimes do to attract people's attention).

Best Answer

If these gestures are exaggerated, I'd suggest "flamboyant"; if staged, then "affected."

affected:

  • assumed artificially; unnatural; feigned: affected sophistication; an affected British accent.

flamboyant:

  • florid; ornate; elaborately styled: flamboyant speeches.
