It was not until 1949 that the phrase "Big Bang" was coined by Fred Hoyle, who proposed his own Steady State theory of the universe, and he considered it to be a pejorative comment... but Hoyle eventually abandoned his theory for Lamaitre's, but the name Big Bang stuck...

I wrote (the guy who invented the big bang), not the guy who coined it.
