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.

That's the nickname of one of my colleagues. Why? His real name is Natter, a rather normal German surname. 2 years ago we did a training for some Aussie guys, who immediately saw the obvious relation. On one evening out with the Aussies, Nutter performed a rather idiotic trick, lighting Sambuca in his mouth (kids, don't try this at home, it is VERY dangerous!). Since then he is known as "Nutter". "Naughty", because he did that trick to impress a Chinese girl, who consequently - impressed with this trick - went to bed with him. Now imagine a department of 80 colleagues, all knowing him as "Naughty Nutter".
