What was the irony behind how this theory was named the big-band theory?

The problem with using the concept of the term Bang in the namesake theory called the Big Bang is that it inadvertently implies an explosive reference. The concept of the Inflationary model of the Universe is to provide an environment in which we can understand its dimensional boundaries. The Big Bang is more a reference to an unfolding evolutionary model of existence in which SpaceTime allows for the integration of positive matter (or an explosion of multiple dimensions from a more singular dimensional containment; i.e. singularity). The Big Bang expresses the understanding of an evolving universe from a one dimensional singularity to the traditional fourth dimensional model of our ever-accelerating universe.
