The large intestine, which is the terminal part of gastrointestinal (GI) tract, is so called because its lumen (diameter) is larger, not because its length is greater, than that of the small intestine (duodenum, jejunum, ileum); in fact, small intestine is longer than the large intestine.
in other simplest words, its because of greater diameter..
