The theologian and physician Georges Lemaître is believed to be the founder of the big bang theory. He first described the conditions within the first seconds of our universe 1931,with the term "primordial atom".
The Big Bang theory explains only that such a rapid expansion caused the young universe to cool and resulted in its present continuously expanding state.
No common agreement exists as to the conditions leading up to the Big Bang, for it is believed that conditions were too different for our knowledge to be applicable.
It was the British mathematician Sir Fred Hoyle who coined the phrase "Big bang" in a radio broadcast in 1949. [He favoured an alternate hypothesis, subsequently abandoned.]
In 1927, Jesuit priest Georges LeMaitre first proposed the idea of an expanding Universe as both (1) a solution of the equations of general relaitivity that actually described our Universe and (2) and explanation of red shift in nebulae. He continued to revise his ideas, and by 1931 his ideas can basically be described as the Big Bang Hypothesis.

The history of the Big Bang theory began with the Big Bang's development from observations and theoretical considerations. Much of the theoretical work in cosmology now involves extensions and refinements to the basic Big Bang model.
The Big Bang theory was proposed (happened) in the middle of the 20th Century.The theory, and the work exploring it, suggest that the Big Bang happened about 13.7 billion years ago.
According to the believes of physics and the big bang, we know that the big bang was both big and a bang. Since we are still receiving radiation from the big bang, So considering that factor I would say that it was big and a bang. What do you believe?
Newton died centuries before Jesuit priest Georges LeMaitre first proposed the hypothesis now known as Big Bang Cosmology.And I think, like most geniuses with difficulties in social interaction, Newton would have found the TV show The Big Bang Theory quite amusing.
Jesuit priest George LeMaitre first proposed the idea that our Universe is expanding over time. Edwin Hubble provided the first astronomical evidence that LeMaitre was correct.

Georges Lemaître proposed what later became known as the Big Bang theory in 1946.He called it L'Hypothèse de l'atome primitif" (Hypothesis of the primeval atom).
