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.

We weren't very imaginative at school ...... we had a kid with big lips who got the nickname Lippy, a ginger girl with bad teeth who got the name Ginger Goof and a poor lad who once got his eyelids burnt and we called him Eyey. A really stinky kid got the name Scum 'Ed, and even his mother started calling him it.
My favourite was a lad who got the name Gilbert as a name in French class. Supposed to be pronounced Jill-Bear.
Anyway, the name stuck and he's still called it today - 20 years later.
