Big Billy Burgers.
My question ... What is meant by Big Billy here? Is it referring to big Stomach or just for a person?
Thanks in advance.
What is meant by Big Billy here?It's a nickname for someone named William, someone who is presumably a rather large person. It has nothing to do with belly, except that it seems Big Billy might have a big belly -- but maybe it's just that he is very tall. Another example of such a nickname is California Jim -- someone named James, and who is from California.
