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.

My name's Ianand I quite like it (always enough letters on a game's high score list :) ),
only I live in Belgium, where it's not that common, and it gets butchered all the time because they simply cannot pronounce it right (especially teachers, since they never remember names right).
Through my school career I've been called Yan, Yen, Yon, Yun, Ion, Eeahn, ... despite desperately repeating "Ian. listen closely. Ee. Un."
By far the worst bit was some fucktards that miraculously pronounced it right, but made it sound like the braying of a donkey just to tick me off.
