I don't see the importance of making a fine distinction here. If people find someone creepy, and social awkwardness plays a role in that assessment, they are still creepy. Creepiness is an impression, not an intention.

I think the thing to think about is why would people prefer to be labeled socially awkward instead of creepy, all things equal? Is it because creepiness is seen as there being intent to harm, whereas social awkwardness has no such intent, just cluelessness? But I think most people who are creepy-but-not-socially-awkward don't actually mean to harm. They just want things to go their way. This desire for control can lead to disrespect for other people's boundaries, which is experienced by other people as creepy.

To me it's like the notion of "racist". People sometimes assume racist people need to have hatred or intent to be hurtful. But many people are racist because they don't think their beliefs are in any way hateful or hurtful.
