Secondly - when adding a nickname ( such as 'Grumpy') for an individual named Charles XXXX what surname do I use in the information block?

I always put nicknames in the same space with the first name:

Last Name:  Smith

First Name:  Wayne Alan "Snuffy"

That way, if you upload to rootsweb for example, someone who searches for him using only his nickname (maybe that's all they ever knew him by) would still find him. I do the same when there are uncertain or contested spellings of names so that either one will find him:

First Name: Wayne Alan Allen "Snuffy"
