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.

Not the worst nickname ever, but I have the sad name of Simon. Leading with "Simon Says" (1st grade), then "Simon, Alvin, Theodore" (3rd grade). Next was "Simon and Garfunkel" (6th grade), Simian (8th grade, and wittiest by far) and last year someone figured Simon, gee, that sounds similar to semen.
The worst thing is meeting people, eventually they realize one of the above and say it thinking "Man, I must be the first person in the world to ever think that. I am ever so witty."
I feel sorry for the kid who wore a leather jacket for about a week. I took to calling him Fonzie and would do the thumb-eeeehhh thing whenever I saw him. One of the Fonz's friends had the last name Polly, leading to very kneejerk nicknames. He never did want that cracker.
