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.

The Ever Living
Our maths teacher had perhaps the most unfortunate nickname but, I thought, quite genius. He was bald on top with tufts of hair on the side getting him the classic nickname of "Coco". It got better though when we noticed that he had a strange dent in his head which, in certain lights, looked like a arse on his head. We re-named him... "Bum-Ra" after Mum-Ra the Ever Living in Thundercats. Not bad for 11 year olds.
PS I also know a Monti who it turns out is called David! Nobody understands.....
