Old nic-name for a New Yorker. Comes from the days when it was New Amsterdam and the ruling Dutch wore knickers for pants. Since these were so commonly seen on the streets there, the name was then applied to the residents. Source of New York Knicks basketball team name as well.
She comes from three generations of Knickerbockers.

His personality is a little bit too weird for me, but I can't get over his body... he's a complete knickerbocker!

A total cheapskate, especially when it comes to making sure to use every possible coupon and special offer--from our Dutch heritage and longtime association with Scots (Presbyterian) churches.
Washington Irving used our name in his satirical writings and played on the stereotype of cheapness, but ironically it wound up being turned right around into a sort of icon of upper-crust New York society! Don't be fooled by Ward McAllister's Four Hundred; a true Knickerbocker would never waste the bucks on the attire required to enter Mrs. Astor's ballroom.

An immature move requiring someone to fart into a plastic bottle, cap it, and open and squeeze the plastic bottle to blow fart contents into another's face.

When a woman takes a man's testicles, places them in her cleavage, and then proceeds to slap her tits together creating a knickerbocker.
Man: Wait, what are you doing?!!!!
Woman: Something I learned in art school! It's called the knickerbocker!
(Strange knocking noise)
