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.

How very PC
I feel bad about this now...
A pakistani guy (Ameet) in my class got nicknamed Teabag.
He was safe as houses and didn't give a shit.
A teacher tried to tell us off for calling him Teabag. Ameet calmly said something along the lines of: It's just a nickname miss, I don't really mind, my skin is kind of brown... and it's beeter than being called "Shit your pants" like Peter.
Not bad for a 7 year old, I still smile when I think about the look on said teachers face.
Ameet, I take my hat of to you sir.
