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.

Teachers
There were many hilariously boring nicknames in my highschool, the best being for the teachers.
Mrs Winton the home economics teacher who'd had a stroke that left one side of her face paralysed was known affectionately as "squintin' Wintin"
Then there was the alcoholic Geography teacher "Baldy heed Reid"
and finally our unfortunately named maths teacher Winnifred Wood or "Winnie the Pooh" we all got in shit the day she found out that one.
