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.

If your name is Welsh and quite long
it makes sense for your family to call you 'Siadwel' instead.
Then after 20 years this becomes 'Shad'.
Only her family and those very close call her that though.
