556. Welsh Idiosyncrasies - Nickname Series (67)

My great-grandfather was known as Shunko-one-side because he was born with some kind of deformity.  My brother who went to the Boys Grammar School, Aberdare had a teacher whose nickname was Conch because he had been a conscientious objector during World War II.

Anna in Rome, formerly of Aberdare.
