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.

KuntoWorld Cup '90 fever was in the air when I was an 11-year-old in Junior 4, and at breaktimes we'd all go down to the football field and pretend to be players from the best two teams (in our eyes) - England and Brazil.
I was the Brazilian player Branco, my mate was Romario, another lad was Dunga, and there was one guy whose surname was Kent who we managed to convince that there was a striker in the Brazilian squad called Kunto.
Cue a whole day of him running around feverishly shouting things like "Square ball to Kunto!", "Kunto's in the box!", "Cross it wide to Kunto!" and so on, to great hilarity.
He'd found out what it meant by the next day, though.
