∙ 14y agoThe Emperor Gaius was, as a boy, sent by his father to live with the army to toughen him up. He was kitted out with a child's version of the soldiers' armour and equipment. The troops nicknamed the future Emperor 'little boots' due to his child size uniform. Soldiers' boots were called 'caligae'; the soldiers used the affectionate, diminutive form 'caligula', and the nickname stuck. I recommend Suetonius for more info.
