British slang for someone who is sexually attractive — essentially calling someone a 'fit' person, with the '-ie' suffix making it slightly more playful and casual. You'd hear it in schools, pubs, and anywhere British people are sizing each other up. 'Fit' on its own already means attractive in British English, so a 'fittie' is just a noun form: the person who catches everyone's eye. It's flirtatious but lighthearted rather than creepy.
Everyone at the party was talking about the fittie who'd shown up with Marcus — apparently they'd met at a festival.

An American dialectal adjective meaning fitting, proper, or suitable, surviving in some rural Southern US dialects and 19th-century American literature as a marker of vernacular speech. Today it reads as strongly archaic or deliberately folksy, often employed for stylistic effect to evoke a regional or period voice.
(US, dialect, obsolete) ; proper; suitable.
A slang adjective that can mean two different things depending on context. In its older sense it describes something fluttery, unstable, or darting about — like a flitty butterfly or a restless mind. In its more common modern slang use, it describes behaviour or mannerisms perceived as ostentatiously effeminate, often applied to gay men, though not exclusively. The word sits in ambiguous territory: sometimes used affectionately within LGBTQ+ communities and sometimes as a mild put-down. Context and the relationship between speakers matters a lot here.
