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.

Had a few
Mostly known as kirton in my school years, as it was my surname and not that many people liked me *sniff*.
Then there was kryton, my friends decided I had an odd shaped head (I don't).
Then said amtes gave me ug as one decided i was ugly (I'm not, really, I'm mildly attractive) that ended when I got contact lenses.
In college I was "the guy whos always got a smile"
Now my nickname is more fasmiliar then my actualy name. My flat mates at uni refered to me as "the geord" cos I'm as close to a geordie as they can get, now every one calls me "Geord" or "the gerod" (as in "hello the geord, how was your day?")
Oh, my dad calls me spike, I had spikey hair as a lad.
All in all, Geord is the only one I like.
