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.

More of a slogan, really
I couldn't have written this better - second week of primary school a new girl joins our class, she is blonde and has that very fine almost thin-on-top type hair. 'This is Rachel Newbould,' says the teacher. A-ha, thinks five-year-old me.
'She's new, and she's bald!' I announce to the class.
New girl bursts into tears.
I get to stand in the corner and think about what I've done.
Unfortunately for her, she was greeted with that same cry for about a year after that. I however was hailed as a 5-year-old comedy genius. Been downhill ever since.
