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.

Mates of mine had the usual pathetic nicknames
at school.
One who blagged his homework at the last minute (by copying out a badly-chosen passage from an encyclopaedia about fairies) was derisively called 'Fairy' by the teacher.
Every possible variation on the more unmanly meanings of the word 'Fairy' then followed him around for the next 5 years.
20-odd years later, the mere expression 'Fair enough!' made him cringe.
The nastiest nick went to the nicest bloke. He was inexplicably called 'Shitbag', which evolved into SB, Shitters, Terz, Shitters-Old-Bean and so on.
However, SB was later known to sport the biggest man-thing in existence. He had quite a few nicknames then, spoken by women in hushed awe and NEVER with one's mouth full.
