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...

In any case, Lamaitre did not "invent" a darn thing, he just proposed a theory that turned out to be the current favorite theory, whether it is correct or not. Time may tell, but certainly not in our lifetimes...
