The word Christian simply means to be Christ like... besides, they were first called Christians at Antioch.
Acts 11:26
26 And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch.
KJV
Notice, they were called Christians, not claimed to be Christians... why? Because when they were being persecuted, they acted like Christ did on the cross, and they said to themselved, these people are like Christ, thus, they called them Christians... quite a difference from today isn't it?
