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.

Im a nickname magnet
Over the years Ive had thousands of nicknames. I must just have such a boring name that people feel compelled to call me something else. I was known for years as "the crow" because I turned up at work with dyed Jet balck hair. I was also known at the exact same time as "Chava"(because Im as far from a chava as you can get). The same guy who gave me those nicknames decided to challenge himself to give me a new nickname every day and did so for 3 months straight. I obviously havent committed them all to memory.
Now for some bizarre reason Im known as "Sven"
Could be worse though... A mate of mine is called Stiffy!
