Andy Bernard
Clueless and often obnoxious, but never malicious. Andy gives people unwanted nicknames, goes on about his Ivy League education, and is completely tone-deaf on issues of class and race –
and yet he's a nice guy at heart. There's a genuine goodness in him. Even his obliviousness is genuine.
