Schettino

Coward, cowardly. Derived from the name of the captain of the luxury liner Concordia, because he ran it aground Jan. 2012, by going too close to shore, and then abandoned ship on a lifeboat and refused to return to help the other passengers or crew get off the boat safely, because he was scared to go back on the ship.

"You like to push women around? Gawd, you're such a Schettino."

"Don't be so Schettino. Just jump: the diving board is only three feet high and you're making everybody else wait to dive!"

"He had unprotected sex with her repeatedly; then when she turned up pregnant, he left town. Very Schettino-ish."

to do a schettino

a captain leaving a sinking ship ahead of anyone else

claiming that he had accidently fallen into a lifeboat, he did a schettino
Instead, because of his selfish actions, he is now regarded as a national embarrassment in his own country. And, his name is already showing signs of becoming a by-word for shameful and stupid behavior — “to do a Schettino."
