Well:

intello m, f (plural intellos) (informal, derogatory) highbrow (informal, derogatory) nerd, egghead

Also, "intello coincée" and such.

It can also stand for just shorthand, as many terms have dual informal derogatory and friendly use (for that matter, geek has also been used positively in the US as well for a few decades).
