💡 Memory Tip
Think of 'ec-CENTRIC' — someone who is 'off-center' (ec = out of, centric = center). Just like a wheel whose axle is not at the true center wobbles in an odd way, an eccentric person 'wobbles' away from social norms.
Picture a spinning top that is slightly off-balance, wobbling in an unexpected, charming pattern — that wobbly, off-center spin is eccentricity.

📖 Etymology
Origin: Latin / Greek "eccentricus (Latin), ekkentros (Greek)" — out of center — from 'ek' (out of) + 'kentron' (center)
First known use: 16th century
The word entered English in the 16th century from Medieval Latin 'eccentricus', itself derived from Greek 'ekkentros' meaning 'out of the center'. Originally an astronomical term describing orbits that deviate from a perfect circle, it gradually extended to describe unconventional human behavior or thinking that deviates from societal norms.
