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.

I've had several nicknames over the years.I was a rather geeky child and used to try to answer all the teacher's questions (my hand was constantly up). This earned me the nickname 'whiz' (for obvious reasons), which eventually became 'Oz' (obvious connection), and then Ozone (oz-one) when the Ozone scare started coming up.
I used 'Ozone' on the BBS I ran for about 8 years. (One of my clients still calls me that.)
I was also called 'Greasy' due to some hygiene habits in early high school, and 'Space Ghost' for a while due to some saying on a t-shirt my mum gave me (I can't remember the phrase, now).
My Dad called me "God Damnit" quite often. "God Damnit, will you clean up your room", etc.
