Worst Nicknames Ever
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.

Had some mates...
One called Stocky - never knew his real name. He was stocky.
One called Ging - He was ginger. A few years later I found out his name was John.
One called Pixie. His surname was Picksley, so it just worked.
A mate called Jimbo, named after Jimbo and the jetset.
Never had many nicknames myself. None that I'd like to repeat anyway.
