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.

At UniOh, while I think about it, there was Flymo, Burble, and Burble's Mate.
This was some 13 years ago. To this day, I have to think of what Flymo's real name is. I'm still in touch with Burble, and I never remember what his name is, even though someone tells me every so often.
As for Burble's Mate, I don't think anyone's ever even told me what his real name is.
Apparently Burble is so called because he used to ask long rambly questions in tutorials. As for the origin of Flymo's name - I've no idea, as he's not especially good at cutting grass and doesn't hover...
I thought I'd split this into two, as otherwise the length might chafe a bit.
