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.

At a local schoolan outsider was unexpectedly given a Head of Department job, which had been previously promised, in a nudge-wink-say-no-more way, to a serving teacher.
The other staff did not take kindly to this and the new boss, being from north of the border, was instantly nicknamed 'That Scottish Bastard', soon discreetly abbreviated.
Poor bloke. He was openly called 'TSB' for years (probably still is, for that matter) and never understood the meaning of it.
Bad enough that the staff called him that privately, but soon the kids did too. These things have a habit of getting out.
