Maybe. But I think that might not go over very well today. In period, 
"bacon" seems to be synonymous with "fat". Our idea of the perfect 
human form seems to have changed. So, while this might have been 
complimentary within reason in period, do you really want a name that 
says you have "spare fat" or "fat to spare"?
