Lots of these are old slang a may or may not be acceptable to use in a formal conversation. Flibbertygibbet, for example. Don’t use that word in the interview, even if it really fits.
My Grandad used to call me a whippersnapper, and my Mom called me and my siblings flibbertigibbets. In fact, I grew up hearing all of these words except #9. I don't think anyone's heard of that word.

I usually just say quomodocunalingus
Sheleighly...not sure if that spelling is correct but isn't that an Irish term for a walking stick?
I thought it was an Irish term for a cudgel.
