re-giftee 

Noun. A person who received a gift from a re-gifter. Usually he/she does not know that the thing given is a re-gift because the gift giver (who originally bought the wretched thing) and the re-giftee are usually not related, or have a needle-in-a-haystack chance of knowing each other (as carefully planned by the scheming re-gifter).
Uhm, I hate to be the one to tell you this, but that pink and brown scarf that your boyfriend gave you... he did not buy it. You're a re-giftee, hon.

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.

Pee Calculus
