What Does This Mean?
A fan's beloved, often minor or niche fictional character that they've become intensely, semi-ironically attached to — used as an affectionate, deliberately silly-sounding placeholder name for whichever character currently has a fan's full obsessive attention.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"He's a background character with two lines but he's my blorbo now, I will die for him."
LORE & ORIGIN
Originated as a nonsense placeholder name on Tumblr, adopted specifically because its silliness matched the self-aware, half-joking tone fans wanted when describing an attachment they know is a little much.
