"The name denoted strength and power, and it tied in to the city's meatpacking tradition and the Chicago Amphitheater's (first home court of the Bulls) proximity to the famed Chicago Stockyards. The one-syllable directness of the Bulls was also in line with Chicago's other team nicknames-Bears, (White) Sox, Cubs, and (Black) Hawks."

The above is from the official NBA website.
