Paul is his first name. He got the "Walnuts" when he hijacked a truck that was supposedly electronics but turned out to be filled with walnuts. I think Paulie's full name is Peter Paul Gualtieri. Sometimes he uses the alias "Mr. Walters" because in many Italian dialects, the "gu" makes the "w" sound, thereby making his last name sound like "Waltieri", which is close to Walters, and walnuts perhaps, but now I'm just reaching.

(The "Big" was appended to distinguish him from another wise guy with a feline moniker, Little Pussy Malenga.)
