I think you’re Jewish cultural background, you’d probably know this detail.. but isn’t nudge (pronounced noodj) a Yiddish term for “an annoying person”?

It is actually a different word. Nudge is an English word. "A Noodj" is a noun meaning pretty much what you described. The vowel is pronounced different. uh vs. oo.
