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.

From the height of Pils to the depths of ChubbsMy younger brother always has to have strange and obscure nicknames for people, I think he struggles with remembering their actual names. For example, he refers to a friend of ours as "Picnic". His name is Ted. Teddy Bear's Picnic. Hence, "Picnic".
He's been calling me Chubbs for the last year or so. I'm not particularly chubby, so I'm at a bit of a loss as to why. Prior to that, he referred to me as Pilsbury Doughboy (often shortened to "Pils", which was actually pretty cool, and arguably a bit "street"). Sadly I'm now Chubbs. He calls me this in public.
We're in our mid/late twenties, and I wish he would stop it.
