#2: Initial revision
Unnerving and insane are not the same thing. Unnerving is how the character makes you feel. A little uncertain, maybe even unsafe or suspicious. Insane is about the character's relationship to reality. If you want insane plus likable, then make him sweet and caring, but not quite all there. If you want unnerving plus likable, then go for charming. Charming can allow many people to skate right up to the edge of creepy and get away with it.
