user567: By marathi language "Buddhi" means intellectual so what is meaning of "Buddha" or is same as Buddhi? Does people started call him Buddha ?

It's according to the suttas that he told people to remember him as "Buddha". For example, at the end of the Dona Sutta (AN 4.36):

Remember me, brahman, as 'awakened.'
... and so, brahman,
I'm awake.

Alternatively the Dharmafarer translation of this sutta:

Therefore, brahmin, remember me as the Buddha.”
... therefore, brahmin, am I buddha.

The Pali for that last line:

tasmā buddho’smi brāhmaṇâ ti

"Buddha" isn't the only word used; for example there's also tathagata.
