Who is the most famous person nicknamed Stinky?

Wentworth Miller is not famous in my book. Is "Prison Break" a TV series? Is so, Miller is a fictional character. I'm writing about a real person.

Sorry. Cats aren't people.

ok, then i do not know.

I never heard that Truman was nicknamed Stinky. If so, there could be controversy in making the "Best" selection.

I'm thinking of another.

Nope, it is not Edmunds, and the nickname was just "Stinky," no Mister.

Teacher,

I am so honored. I'm not beyond "Google" when it comes to generic web searches. So I presume Scour and Bing are also search engines. I am always learning.


Don't be coy. What did you find!?

You might be on the right track. The Stinky I have in mind is a historical figure, though still cited today. The nickname was among his childhood friends that continued to be friends in his adulthood.

No harm in posting your guesses, but I would do so as a new response as a matter of my-lot form.

I decided to try google and scour.com and bing.com.

Okay. I see that I stumped y'all. Here is a huge clue:

An excellant historical fiction was published in 1980 by an author named Stone where I read about Stinky who was quite a practical joker as a youngster and loved to create noxious smelling chemical events, I presume sulfurous.
