The word is
NO
Half of nothing
If you split by syllable, you get to 'halves' no-thinghalf of NONE is NO.
Part of one
the letters N and O are part of the word ONENEO is also known as the ONE, and (keeping letters in order, and removing E), leaves NO.
More or less
in the phrase 'No more, No less'
Favorite of children
Some children seem to enjoy being awkward and saying 'No!' to parental requests
But fully a villain!
Dr No fully fits the bill here
Finally:
Can you guess this word?
Is it a guess if I've supported my reasoning? No - I don't think that's a guess, it's an answer.

$\begingroup$ @Stiv it could be! But I don't see any indication either way, so I will leave my answer as it is for now $\endgroup$ Sep 14, 2021 at 17:54
