The Big Apple has a fascinating history dating back to the 17^th century. Dutch settlers first arrived in 1624 and called it New Amsterdam. The area did not become New York City until 1664 when the English claimed the territory and named it after the Duke of York. As for its nickname of the Big Apple, that comes from 1971 when the city began using it to attract more tourists. Historically, the Big Apple is a 1920s horse racing term meaning the best.
