They call it "Big Brother" because the older brother is normally the one who watches everyone and keeps eye over everybody. And due to the fact that cameras are all over the Big Brother household, it refers to the term big brother.

The name "Big Brother" comes from the concept of constant surveillance and monitoring of the houseguests inside the Big Brother house. It is inspired by the novel "1984" by George Orwell, in which a totalitarian government is always watching its citizens.
