Worst Nicknames Ever
Everyone 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.

Lead
Thanks to a surname that's not Smith or Jones or anything half as common, I've been subjected to crap nicknames since I started school, often based on mispronunciation of said surname.
Lead, Lead 'ead, Legs, Lard, Lardy, Large, Loud
The discovery of the periodic table at Middle school lead to a couple of Plumbum based nicknames.
Various other names; Toxic, Short Round, ferret, petal.
I wish that I could think of something funny, but every one of them was intended to make me miserable
