    My mate's nickname was "Shanks" of the bathroom business.....

    He fell when taking a wee and smashed his head off the jacks and left him scarred for life after many many beers.

    What's your fav's..... & maybe obviously the ones that were that bit on the tripe side?

    Friend of mine works with a girl who has one hand that is smaller than the other.

    They have christened her "The Clock".

    Fine work.

    My old boss used to call me The House Elf.

    I'm small.:(

    I knew a guy who'd suffered terrible alopecia from when he was a young child, he'd lost every hair and eyelash and pube on his body. His nickname was Fuzzy.

    A guy I used work with was called Zero, could never find out why.


    Anyway, his younger brother started work at the same company and, being a little bit slower than his brother, was immediately named Minus One.

    Professional footballer Fitz Hall:


    He had a decent career with clubs including Crystal Palace, Wigan, QPR and Watford, but he’s undoubtedly remembered most because of his nickname.

    The defender is known as One Size because, y’know, One Size Fitz Hall.

    A fella I know was found with some porn mags which earned him the moniker ‘Dirty books’.

    He went on to become an accountant and the name is more apt than ever.

    There was a guy at school who had really bad acne - his nickname was 'Brunch' (after the HB ice cream). There was another chap who had really bad eczema - his nickname was 'Snake' because he was always shedding skin. There was also a kid with a facial twitch, who was known as 'Regi', named after the Celtic footballer Regi Blinker.
