Digman named it the Big Five in 1990
+Goldberg coined the term Big Five in 1981

Why this is better

Verified: body already correctly reads 'Goldberg coined the term Big Five in 1981' with John Digman mentioned only (correctly) as one of several independent researchers who found the same five-factor structure, not as the coiner of the term. No stale attribution found in bibliography or FAQ. Already correct.
