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.

Alan Apple: Absolutely no idea why
One friend went by Fozzie, some dubious connection to the puppet but I never asked. By far the greatest was my best mate, he has the surname Duggan. One day a fellow schooler came in talking about that god-awful Rutger Hauer movie, Salute of the Jugger and it clicked. We tried for years to wind him up by calling him Salute of the Duggan but he never went for it.
