crab claw hug

n. The slightly awkward one-armed hug, so named because it is like a crab claw. It can be used between guys that feel weird about giving a full hug, between guys and girls who are somewhat awkward, or as bait for a full hug.

You can tell Jim and Carol aren't that close yet, did you see that crab claw hug?
