I am curious what are the worst nicknames you have heard somebody call their child. My friend refers to her five yo as big poop and her 18 month old as little poop.
I helped a girl plan her wedding who was given the nn Bunny. Everyone in the family had nns, dad was Big Papa! Friends and family referred to them by their nns exclusively. It was so weird to work with!
I overheard a woman calling her son "Coopie" while she was trying to encourage him to pee like a big boy...outside...in front of a plate glass window. I assume his name was Cooper and I hope none of his classmates hear his mom call him that when he gets older.
A little boy we met on our cruise was named Gabriel and his Dad was calling him Gabers - ick.

My great uncle has consistently called his grandson "peckerhead" for most of his life, since he was a really small child (he's in high school now).

This kid may not have a lot of bowel, but he has plenty of guts! DS born at 34 weeks with (surprise!) gastroschisis turned short bowel syndrome. 131 days in the NICU, 7 trips to the OR, G-button, daily TPN....
We are impatiently awaiting the day we can say goodbye to his girlfriend Ivy for good.

This just gave me the laugh I needed this afternoon! That poor kid!
Don't feel too bad for him - he's earned it

This is sounding eerily like the family of that new reality TV show Honey Boo Boo ... any possible relation there?!

This was my EXACT thought!

My dad kept trying to get my brother to name his son Cooter. When they announced his name was Carter, I was kind of nervous my dad (willfully ignorant of the normal association with the word) would persist in calling him Cooter. Thankfully, Carter has remained Carter.
When my mom was little, her mother, who spoke french (but not to the kids for whatever reason, so my mom didn't really understand any of it) had a nickname for mom that mom always thought was a term of endearment, but it turned out to mean turnup head, hahaha
Re: Really bad nicknames
We have acquaintances who named their first daughter Isabelle and call her Belle a lot. Their younger daughter they NN'd The Beast.
Nothing like promoting sibling rivalry from birth I guess.
My nephew is Braeson. They call him Brace.
A second daughter who was nicknamed "son."
It was always said endearingly/jokingly, and she grew up into a confident, athletic, feminine girl. So, no long term psychological damage

I went to High school with a guy named Rex..........his nn (his whole life) was Oral!
Can never get on board with the name Rex because of it!
Poor kid. My mom called me Pooter for the same reason.
I know a kid who's about 10 years old now whose parents nn'ed him Pooper. To this day I have no idea what his real name is.
