"Meathead"
Beginning with their first meeting, Archie routinely refers to Michael by the derogatory nickname "Meathead", as seen in a flashback in the second-season episode "Mike Meets Archie". In Archie's own words, it means "dead from the neck up. Meat...head." A later episode of All in the Family reveals that Archie Bunker himself was referred to as "Meathead" in his youth. Series creator Norman Lear said his father used to call him "Meathead".
