Re: Weirdest nicknames given to you in school…
best ever school nickname ive ever heard is "half a jam sandiwch"
if you say his first name quickly it s sounds like half a jam. n his last name sorta sounds like sandwich and something was needed to complete the phrase...
needless to say he hates it
me and my best friend were reffered to as the two ronnies by my biology teacher and form tutor in sixth for because we both used to wear leather jackets and they'd rarely see one of us without the other which apparently reminded them of these two bouncers off of some old tv programme
also quite ironic cos we were 2 of the smallest girls in 6th form...
my brother gets some good ones too because he's very darked skinned - turkaturka is my favourite
and my boyfriend gets called house of by his friends because his name is fraser -

Re: Weirdest nicknames given to you in school…Shadow because of my habit of moving really quiet and turning up where people didn't think I would.
Spare ribs because someone once threatened to eat me but being so skinny they said I would be only good for spare ribs.
Hammy, Hamster, Hamslice and Mr Slice where all variations on my surname. -

In year 4 I had a really nasty perforated ear drum so had earache for ages afterwards and the cold made it HELL. So my Mum gave me a trapper hat (you know, a hat with ears - ironically they're really popular now) to keep my ears warm. I was called Norwegian Girl for the next THREE YEARS.

Re: Weirdest nicknames given to you in school…Yep. They decided that only someone from a very cold place would wear one. And then decided Norway. We were 9, it wasn't very logical!(Original post by Luceria)
For wearing a trapper hat? I live in Norway and I've never seen anyone wear a trapper hat.

I've had various nicknames, although none were at school - Mushroom (no one ever worked out where it came from, but it well and truly stuck!), Posh (when I was working in a fairly rough area of Bristol, because I speak in a fairly neutral accent rather than thick Bristolian) and Slut (because I wasn't).

Everyone calls me jazzamaspaz because my name is Jasper, and I'm clumsy... Even teachers!
I tripped myself in biology today and dropped my folder and it kind of exploded everywhere...
Teacher:"woops! Looks like jazzamaspaz is here then.."
Seriously..
Seerriiooussllllyyyy?!

I don't have a weird one myself. Though a kid with second name 'Barker' got 'Barks le Farks'. Still have no idea what it means, just sounds right
