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.

Gimli, Miguel and Heffalump.Ive had 3 nicknames that have ever stuck from varying periods of my life.
Hefalump; from when I was an army cadet of the big boned vareity. The fact that all the other cadets were malnurished chavs didnt help.
Miguel; I got a tan once and had a really cheesy Ricky Martin esq shirt with tasteless spanish pattern stitching on the front, leading a mate to call me 'Miguel the spanish waiter' shortend to Miguel. This became universal and still rears its ugly head occasionaly.
Finaly Gimli; Seeing as im short (for an American footballer 5'11) and have a beard. Its got to the stage now that if someone says 'Tom' at uni i wont bother responding.
Could be worse I could be 'Captain Ahab'. See what happens when you get drunk a sleep with an obease lady.
