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.

Quite often ended up the butt of jokes - at secondary school his mum worked in the school office and jokes about that ensued. Then there was the time when he was dubbed a paedophile (due to a song I wrote about him incidentally; woops!). But the nicknames were the ones I'll never forget.
Unfortunately, my friend had the surname 'Downes'. Cue everyone referring to him as Downer or such-other related names for about 4 or 5 years.
Also, I once decided that his face was absolutely foul and dubbed him Fouly in a lesson of English. Didn't quite stick, but pissed him right off.
Currently his title is Adam the Gay, Ph.D.
