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.

LotsMy last name is Spooner.
At first they called me Mr Spoon.
Then they called me Spoons
Then they called me Spoonster.
Then they called me Noops.
Then they called me Sponner.
Then they called me Spon.
I once overheard a bunch of boys I taught saying 'HMMM. I WONDER WHAT KIND OF CUTLERY YOU USE TO EAT YOUR ICE-CREAM. HMMM. I ENJOY CUTLERY'.
I quite liked Spon.
And then, at uni, I was:
SPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONGUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRDDDDDDDDD!
But I would have preferred to have been called 'The Master Cutler'.
Also: Roland, Ratters and Ratty (because of laugh like Roland Rat)
Penfold (because of mole-like features, coined by idiotic CCF guy we knew as Sgt Bellend)
Cedric (thankyou, o itinerant cricket team of William Hulme's Grammar School, Moss Side, Manchester, for this one)
Isaac (because my Dad almost sacrificed me to a jealous god).
