Good friend was playing around with sodium in HS chemistry class, scooping off little chunks and throwing them into water to watch them skitter around. One chunk was too large and it popped into his mouth. He stood there for a few seconds with a stupid look on his face and smoke coming out of his mouth (the story was later amended to his mouth and ears). Being as it was the mid 60s, he was quickly dubbed 'Puff the Magic Dragon', later shortened to just Puff! Stuck to him through HS.
