Regional, perhaps? --Connel MacKenzie 07:31, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
 * It's on the dictionaries: ninnyhammer. Besides, I've met this term just yesterday: "The girl my other side was a ninnyhammer: no bosom. I thought these girls with no bosoms were exploded long ago." It's from Patrick O'Brian's "HMS Surprise". The meaning is somewhat different, though. --Dart evader 07:47, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
 * It's in SOED (usage 1592) and was used by Tolkien. Saltmarsh 07:20, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
