No one is quite sure exactly where the word "nerd" came from. There was an earlier word "nert", meaning "stupid or crazy person", that was a variant on the word "nut," and this may have mutated further into"nerd."
Other speculations on the origin include:
- Mortimer Snerd, Edgar Bergen's dummy
- Knurd, drunk spelled backward, referring to people who would rather study than party
- Northern Electric Research and Development laboratories (most etymologies involving acronyms are simply false, but "nerd" didn't appear until the mid-20th century... late enough for the acronym theory to be at least semi-plausible)
