Best nicknames you've ever heard

I've known a bloke called Stevie for about 7 years as he goes to the same local pub as me, and only tonight did I find out it's not his real name.

He apparently used to sell blinds, so was a blind man - Stevie Wonder, Stevie.

Got me thinking about nicknames and I was wondering the best nicknames (and reasons behind them) you've heard?

The one I can think of off the top of my head is a guy who used to play for a Sunday league team I was on whose surname was McPhee - he kept trying to get everyone to call him Shooie despite us telling him he couldn't choose his own nickname. Cue the next guy on the team being given the nickname Shooie.

Sure you'll all have better ones!

    Work with a lad from Middlesbrough. Call him Powerhouse because it was about the time when Osborne rambled on about 'the northern powerhouse'.

    My Sunday side in the late eighties had a Northern Irish fella nicknamed Semtex. It later transpired he had been very aptly named!

    I was told that Gladstone Small was sometimes called Pearl. If you google Glsdstone Small you will find he was a cricketer and he had no neck. Hence, he was neckless.
