Well, lets see...

I was called Lindy loops or loopy Linda or looper.

My friend Teresa Codd was called fishy or fishgirl.

My friend Ryan Jacob was called biscuit. (In Ireland and the UK biscuit = cookie and Jacobs is a large biscuit manufacturing company.)

Those are the ones that come to mind immediatly, based purely on the name. Just about everyone else I knew was mocked because of their dress sense / appearance / heritage / being to smart / being too stupid / being too quiet / being too noisy / some other daft reason.

Teasing happens. It's up to you if you think the name will be too much of a focus or not, but not calling your kid Jayne won't save him from being teased.
