A person who does not fit in with most of mainstream society because of their apperence (usually glasses, zits, allergies etc.), interests and behaviour, but have a high amount of kowledge in things not always considered 'cool' i.e. anime, warhammer, dungeons and dragons.
Contrary to rumour nerds often have quite good social skills, but only within their own circle of friends. They are usually happier than average because they are less worried about conforming to the majority.
Not to be confused with the geek.

Someone with ginger/'orange' hair.
Gingers and Redheads are not quite the same - red hair can range from strawberry blonde to auburn and is caused by and excess the pigment phaeomelanin. Ginger hair is often (but not always) a genetic mutation, hence the pale skin, freckles and sensitivity to light.
Thanks to South Park ginger people are often the butt of jokes, much like blondes. Like redheads they are thought to have fiery tempers. Unlike redheads they are also considered 'freaks'.

A geek is someone of high intelligence, which usually makes them outcasts of mainstream society. Although they share many traits with the nerd (lack of social skills, usually wears glasses, normally seen on the computer etc.) the main difference is IQ. Nerds are normally of average or above average intelligence, while geeks are often significantly smarter. Geeks also have more mainstream interests i.e physics, maths, chemistry
Geeks are sometimes described as nerds with less social skills, although in some places this is the opposite way round.
