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.

Daryl!This isn't really a story of a nickname, but I think I'll include it anyway.
There's a kid called Daryl at my school, he's quite quiet, and not one of the popular kids. Once, in a lesson, he did something or other wrong, cue somebody shouting: "Daryyllll" in a sarcastic tone. This then became the phrase for whenever anything went wrong, ever. If the projector didn't work in assembly? "Darylll".
Anyway, this tomfoolery reached its peak when instead of saying "cheese" for the school photograph, about 800 boys and 200 girls were instructed to say "Daryl".
He is yet to comment.
