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.

Appropriate...At school, I was unfortunate to be one of those annoying A* students, and I excelled in Science. Not surprisingly, I had to endure several years of "Licker" by one of the academically-challenged lads in my class. He did make me laugh once, when he realised (in Science class) that my surname (Turner) rhymed with Bunsen burner. At the end of a Chemistry lesson, he stood up and announced a four-verse "Turner, the Bunsen burner" ode, to the class. I felt quite special(!)
Ironically, now i'm a Chemistry teacher, and my students have not yet found out this nickname...
