A sarcastic term and nickname for a dead beat, absentee or piece of shit father. FOTY is an acronym for Father Of The Year but in the most negative way possible.
Like always, I'll got my son and you stay there, doing You, like you always do, FOTY!!

Years ago, my friend had a horrible, cheating husband and worst, he was also a beadbeat, missing in action-father.

After one of their many arguments and me always trying to diffuse the tension with humor, I said, Well, he turned out to be a real FOTY! She said FOTY? Yeah, Father Of The Year. And it stuck! FOTY is the term for that horrible, beadbeat father and we all know that type.

That sentence comes straight out of a text I sent my son's father! His nephew was the original crown holder, but now he rocks it oh too well!
