What 𩻣 means
It is a Chinese character for a small sea fish.
The medieval Chinese character dictionary 《六書故》 (Liushu Gu), written in the Song dynasty, cross-references it with 𩹆. A fish account quotes a Ming-era miscellany describing the animal as soft-bodied and nearly boneless, with fine scales, a wide mouth, and many teeth.
Was 𩻣 used for a weak person?
Yes, in a Ming-era account of coastal speech.
This Ming-era account says coastal speakers used the fish's name for a person they considered weak. In that context, it is a put-down, not a neutral nickname.

1Why does 𩻣 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
