King John of England was often referred to by nicknames such as "John Lackland" due to his loss of territories in France, particularly Normandy, and his perceived failures as a ruler. Additionally, he was labeled "Softsword" for his military ineptitude and inability to effectively defend his kingdom. These nicknames reflected not only his shortcomings in leadership but also the widespread discontent among his subjects and nobles, contributing to his negative legacy.
