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.

Mine call me "Ju" or "Juju" now, but until fairly recently they called me "Jabba". Apparently I was a dead ringer for Jabba the Hutt when I was born.
They used to call my Brother (and still do, in moments of forgetfulness) "Gribbly". Because he used to dribble a lot. And "E.T.", because he looked like the alien with a face like a friendly turd when he was born.
Nice people.
