The cluster of symptoms you've described corresponds to Asperger's disorder. Asperger's disorder was a subtype of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in previous diagnostic manuals, such as the DSM-IV, but it is no longer a separate diagnosis in the DSM-5, which was published in 2013. Instead, all of these symptoms would fall under the broader umbrella of autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Therefore, the specific diagnostic label for the individual with these symptoms, according to the DSM-5, would be Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
