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.

nicknamesI'm one of those people who's had a nickname wherever I've been. I don't know why. At school I was known as Mess or Messy. Not useful with the ladies. Okay I was always a bit of a scruff. I still am. When I scrub up these days my wife still comments on it and tells me I look great with a look of astonishment. After school my druggy, drinky gang dubbed me Parky. My surname is Meadowcroft and we used to watch Brookside which had a soap show inside the soap called Meadowcroft Park. That's how that one started. Now I'm a fully fledged professional paying tax and everything and I still can't get away from the nickname thing. My current name at work is Dad. And I don't even have any kids.
