The size of a creek is relative, small or large compared to what. Our town has a creek running through it that is larger than many rivers and in the spring runs pretty wild and can flood some areas just like a river. Creeks, streams, and rivers were given their names by early settlers who most likely used their own judgement for how to name them.
