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.

...who had a bald patch on his head in an incredibly distinctive shape, resulting in the nickname Ace of Spades.
He also had an additional nickname which I personally used, the basis of which was due to the fact that the ends of his fingers were swollen and resembled little bell-ends. I called him Dick Fingers. Once to his face. I didn't fulfill his request to repeat myself.
Yeah, so anyway, there was this other chap called James Gardener. He was soon called Uphill Gardener. Uphill to his friends.
Another large chap I knew was called Gillette, because he pretty much had a full beard since infant school.
A girl, who was rather pleasing in the aesthetics department, was called BB. Why? Cuz she was so tight you couldn't push a greased ball bearing up her arse.
And finally, a fella who was called Jobsey (this was his surname). Jobsey became Jobo. That then changed to Hobo. And then to HoboCop; which, in my personal opinion, is a fucking great nickname.
