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.

Naive Little Girl
When I was in the third grade (about 8 years old) my literate teacher decided to nickname me after the Bandersnatch in Lewis Carrol's poem about Jabberwocky. I was AmandaSnatch, or just Snatch. Later that year I went to summer camp and adopted a neckname based on my big girl teeth/little girl face. I was called Beaver.
Never had a clue...
