I went to high school with a kid who used to call me "Hamster" because of my last name (which is definitely German and eleven letters long). I walked into study hall once with an extremely short haircut and was greeted by this kid as,"HAMSTER! Did you shave your fur for the summer?"

Embarrassing, but better than the kids back in grammar school. They used to call me "Goosey-Burger" for the same reason - and just to be mean and rude. My sister-in-law calls her husband "Ham" - not realizing or stopping to think, that is her MARRIED name, too!.
