Best Answer

Louie Armstrong.

He got his nickname 'Satchmo' from his shape of his embouchure which was described as looking like a satchel. This lead to the nickname satchel mouth and finally it was shortened to the name "Satchmo".

Louis Armstrong, the great African-American rumpeter, composer, singer (and occasional actor), was also known by the nickname "Satchmo" - derived from "Satchelmouth". The exact origins of the nickname are not certain; it may have been from him putting the coins he collected while dancing for pennies in the streets of New Orlean into his mouth to prevent them from being stolen by bigger kids (i.e. using his mouth as a satchel) or possibly because people thought he had a large mouth - he certainly could puff his cheeks out really big when playing the Trumpet!
