The trick was named after the inventor Brian Lotti by another skater Sal Barbier. He thought that since the trick involves spinning and 'Lotti' sounds like 'lottery' it would be appropriate to name the trick after a Californian scratch ticket.

A big spin can also be performed into other aerials like nollie or fakie ollie. A backside big spin done into a 360 flip is a big spin flip. When it is done frontside it is often made into a heel flip and becomes a big spin heel flip. The fakie version of this is known as a Rick Flip, named after Rick Howard.
