slang term for a member of the Anglican Church who favors and is at times outright preoccupied with Anglo-Catholic ritual and observance and is a general know-it-all and smart ass about all such matters. Often characterized as a fussy, effeminate younger male, either clergy or layman.
The term may have arisen from humorous observations on the extreme inflexibility and "uprightness" of such individuals as well as their tendency to be very temperamental, or spiky.

He loved candles, bells, incense, fiddleback chasubles; the whole liturgical nine yards. He couldn't imagine church being any other way. In other words, a classic spike.

Spike. A character on the (absolutely amazing) TV show Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997 - 2003), and later on season five of Angel, the Buffy spring-off. A vampire with a soul that still has a sense of humor (hee, hee, Angel). He got his soul by completing tasks to make Buffy love him as much as she loves Angel.
Spike is Angel's best friend, seeing as they both have souls, even though they try to deny it constantly.
