She seems to lack the common sense that all the other spirits posses.

She also lacks a name that all the other spirits have.

It's not dumbness - it's cluelessness.

Basically, those spirits that are more accustomed to the world are the ones that have been living within society in some way. As you would expect. Tohka had always hated and rejected society, and certainly wasn't trying to find a way to fit into it in the way that some of the others were (even if that fitting in meant killing people a la Kurumi). So, at least initially, she was completely unfamiliar with anything that most people would take for granted.

As for the name - she never had need for one before she met Shido.
There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do.

Remember that when Tohka first appeared in this world she already have to face off the AST. For her, humans were originally just creatures that want to kill her. Therefore, all her time in this world until she met Shidou was fighting, fighting, and fighting. It makes sense that she doesn't have common sense of this world.

As for a name, she originally didn't even need one, since she never communicated with a human that didn't have the intent to kill her until Shido, therefore peaceful and friendly conversations just didn't happen at all.

I suggest you watch Date A Live Season 1 Episodes 1-3 to get an idea.

She is not dumb, she is pure.

(Yes I know there are lots of jokes around her INT only being 32, but come on...)

Like other people have said and in more detail above me is she is not dumb but clueless. She is rather perceptive to Shidou's feelings though which has been shown many times including last arc and this arc as well.

She is far from dumb. You might be mistaking it for sincerity.

As most of you already figured out, she did not want to integrate herself in the human society before she mets Shido.
It was not important for her at all, because for her every human was a threat.

Really dude. Its not dumb you braindead.

She is just innocent and cute and cluelessness. However, I know sometimes she's a bit annoying but you have to understand here
