Brian called Ted "Theodore"

Does anyone remember the first time Brian called Ted "Theodore"? I was reading a fic and suddenly wondered it. If I'm not wrong, it's in season 3, when Emmett asked Brian's advice for his "fuck date". 

And why did Brian called Ted that name. It's his real name or it's a special, old way for the name "Ted" ???

Just some funny thought. Hope you guys know it. Thanks.

EDIT: some awesome info in comments. Thank you guys, I've learned a lot.

As to Ted being short for Theodore, have you never heard of Theodore Roosevelt? Check this:

Yes, actor Robin Williams played Theodore Roosevelt in Night at the Museum.

Love that movie.
