It is probably derived from caprichoso.

Capricious, whimsical, obstinate. Fanciful.

Often used to describe two year olds.

Whims. Caprichos can be used in a negative sense, such as having to deal with a person and their constant desires, a person caprichoso.

Por ejemplo:

¿Mi novia es muy caprichosa, que hago?

" Capricho" is a noun meaning "whim" 'craving" "caprice" depending on context.

" Caprichoso" is an adjective qualifying a characteristic ( about the above).Whimsical, capricious. Could even go to "fickle" ( in Spanish in certain context).
