Etymology
Splashiness comes from the simple word splash, the sound or action when something hits water, with the endings -y and -ness to make a noun. Think of someone who 'makes a splash' at an event by wearing very bright or loud clothes, so splashiness means being showy or flashy and attracting attention instead of being subtle.
