1. It’s more corny old slang than anything you’d hear someone use seriously. Still, strongly enough associated it’s not really usable. Along the lines of Dick, BJ, or Woody.
2. Not on anyone under 60.
3. No. In addition to the reasons above, it is (was?) a clothing store chain in the area for awhile.
4. Yes! I love nicknames like Libby, Nellie, Minnie, etc. Fanny falls right in line.
5. Maybe in another generation when the association isn’t as strong.
