There's a sitcom from Hong Kong on the Chinese cable channel up here where one of the main/ensemble characters is called Fay Jai ("Fat Boy") by just about everyone. Unless you're referring to Homer Simpson, it'll never fly in North America. Weight/physical appearance is a touchy issue in Hong Kong too (women strive to be about the size of Mary Kate Olsen, men want to be very metro). What works in one country doesn't necessarily work in another
