Worst Nicknames EverEveryone wants a cool nickname like "Ace", "Boss", or "Iron". Kids being kids, that's not what we get - the kid with polio gets called Johnny Spazm, your Ginger Fuhrer was called Rob Man-you-smell and your question master was "Tommy" Trinder despite him being dead for years.
Tell us the worst you've heard and the stories behind them.

Pearl the PerilMany years ago my mum started work in a new office. A woman came up to her and introduced herself, in a broad Scottish accent, as, "Hello, I'm Peril."
My mum called her Peril for 7 or 8 years until it became Peril's turn to leave. Upon signing her goodbye card my mum noticed it said, "Good luck in your new job, *Pearl*."
Not too bright sometimes, my mum!
