Napoleon was nicknamed "Little Boots" (or "Petit Caporal" in French) due to his early military career and the way he was perceived by his soldiers. The nickname originated from a time when he was a young officer, and his short stature and the distinctive riding boots he wore led to the moniker. It was meant to be somewhat affectionate, highlighting his ambitious spirit despite his small size. The name later became a symbol of his larger-than-life persona and military prowess.
