I am looking for a definition or meaning of the endearment "Schnicklefritz" (I
don't know if I have spelled it correctly). But according to my father, my
great-grandmother who was from Germany, called him that often and now he calls
my second daughter that since she was given the middle name of Lucia after this
grandmother. Any help with the meaning or suggestions on where to look for the
meaning would be helpful. It will aid in writing of some of my family history.
Thank you.

P.S. I've looked in a English-German/German-English dictionary and could not
find the word.
