Etymology
Timberdoodle can also be a joking name for a foolish or awkward person, using timber ('wood') plus doodle ('a silly or simple creature') to make a playful image of a 'silly wood-creature'. A helpful way to remember this meaning is that calling someone a timberdoodle is like teasing them for being harmlessly clumsy or foolish.
