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.

BECAUSE HE IS!!!I worked with a guy that was seriously crazy. Not the mad as a biker crazy but proper mental illness. Absolutely brilliant at the various operating systems and the program that was his speciality, but very odd.
He would come in red faced and smelly and bobbing and weaving as though against an invisible opponent. He wore the same clothes all week and although earning about USD$1200 per day he took all his belongings about in old plastic supermarket bags.
His nickname..."Mental Mickey" or just "mental" to his friends. When anyone asked why we called him mental the standard reply was "BECAUSE HE FUCKING IS!!"
I have various friends called some good nicknames, Krusty, LL Cool Mikey D, The Badger, Robbotron, Stick.
In turn I have been given many nicknames, polar bear, panda, hunter, dr A, bozo, drew, macduff, harry, huntros huntros gali and quite a few others. Pretty much the only thing I don't get called is my actual name.
