The term "oddball" originated in the early 20th century, primarily used in American English. It combines "odd," meaning unusual or different, with "ball," which is derived from the game of Baseball, where an "odd ball" may refer to an unpredictable pitch. Over time, "oddball" evolved to describe someone or something that is eccentric or unconventional.
