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.

After moving house...When I was 10 I started a new school and was given my first nickname - 'firtree'. It sounds random but there is acutally a story behind it (created by my friend who has slightly twisted logic). My name is jen so my friend naturally assumed adding 'tree' to the end of my full name jennifer made sense, so I became 'jennyfirtree'. Unfortunately it has stuck (I am now 20) and it can be quite embarrassing trying to explain it, as this one friend is the only person who still uses the name. But I could never think of anything funny to call her...
