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.

Stair DwellerWakefield College Music Dept - the halcyon days of 1995 - 1996. There was a kid called Neil, not very talkative in fact I only heard him speak about twice. He used to shun the social whirlpool of the common room and sit instead on the stairs. The college being populated by eighteen year olds over exposed to the dramatic operatic posturings of heavy metal titled him, for ever after, 'The Stair Dweller' and that was how he was known to everyone.
To the extent that one of the tutors was heard to ask 'has anyone seen Neil Steadweller today?' Pfft!
