Whimsical, whim (मन की सनक) से बना है। 'On a whim' यानी बस मन किया इसलिए। जो whim पर चले, वह whimsical — सनकी, अनोखा।

Whimsical is built on whim, a sudden fancy of the mind. 'On a whim' means just because one felt like it. A whimsical person or idea follows whims, so it is odd, playful or unpredictable.
