It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

Why 0.0001 BTC should be called "a bitmar".
Firstly, some currencies use the -ar suffix, such as the dollar and dinar.
Secondly, to distinguish Bitcoins from other digital or fiat currencies, the term "bit" should be used in the unit name.
0.00000001 is one satoshi
0.001 is a millibit
0.00001 is a megasatoshi
In between milli and mega we have our 0.0001 value, so I'll use the 'm' to form -mar
Usage.
*Excuse me, how many bitmars for a coffee?
Point 3 bitmars
*I pay 300 bitmars per month for web hosting.
*I'll give you 50,000 bitmars for your car.

Bitcoin is the ultimate freedom test. It tells you who is giving lip service and who genuinely believes in it.

And we are living in it now. - Ryan Dickherber... ... ATTENTION BFL MINING NEWBS: Just got your Jalapenos in? Wondering how to get the most value for the least hassle? Give BitMinter a try!

For those who missed the edit in the OP: I cranked up the timescale to get this done by the end of next week. I honestly wasn't sure what kind of response I'd get, but it seems worth finishing this sooner rather than letting it drag out! Name submissions must be in by midnight, CST, January 4.
EDIT: "mics" as a name for the 0.0001 BTC unit is taken
Taken by what? You'd get credit for it. kilomoto
100 satoshis in a moto
1 kilomoto = 100,000 satoshis
It'd have to be 10 satoshis in a moto, but the name is yours. |

You call it "XB4", pronounced "bee-four". In common usage among people familiar with Bitcoin, you would just say the number (representing the decimal place), as in:
"Hey, someone's offering a prize of a thousand 'fours' to come up with a good name for this unit."
Similar to how we (in the United States) say "Can you change this ten for a five and five ones?"

First and second decimal place being micro-bitcoins/micro-bits (or all numbers after the decimal?)? So BTC1.43 would be one bitcoin, forty three micro-bitcoins. Perhaps then, BTC1.4325 would be one bitcoin, four thousand, three hundred and twenty five micro-bitcoins.

Micro- is already well established as being 1 millionth, so I couldn't really give you credit for micro-bitcoin, sorry. Also, might as well throw these in here... one cthulhu
