I could be wrong but I think crab eyes refers to small round eyes or else eyes that are close together.

I think it is the name Josie gave him when he was crying after their first major argument.

I thought he told her that he used to get called it by people slagging him, and that's why he got so annoyed when she called him it, because he said she knew he didn't like it.

I thought it was because he is always looking around at a side glance at people..I prefer snake eyes which suits him more.

I could well have missed that, it must have been right at the beginning but I can not recall it. Either way, he does not like it.

Girls in school used to call him names, i.e. 'little midget bullfighter'. He didn't like it when Josie called him 'crab eyes'. Crab eyes means small round beady eyes that dart to and fro constantly. Pretty funny stuff really.

Wrong. Crab eyes is a term to mean nipples being visible through a tight shirt. Source.

Which is why he gets so wound up about it.

I'm pretty sure it was Nathan who christened him crab eyes in reference to his small 'crabby' looking eyes one morning.

Wow, live and learn. I thought he's called that because he smiles and wrinkles appear in the sides of his eyes. I thought they looked like crab legs. However, the tiny eyes and a particular facial expression does make sense. What irony that he complained about Rachael's particular expression!

I'm also fairly certain that Rachael mentioned it to John during the massage task yesterday ... I'm sure she said who called you crab eyes first .. to which he replied 'Nathan' ... anyone else see the massage on LF?

It's nothing to do with his eyes.
