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.

1. My dad is ginger. His nickname at school was Duracell (like the batteries which are orange round the top). I actually thought that would be a really common one, but nobody else seems to have posted it.
2. A friend of my brother's whose surname is Underwood, which sounds a bit like 'underwear'... They call him Pants. Pants has a brother too, who is universally known as Kecks.
I wish I had a nickname.
