If 0.001 is millibits would 0.0001 be ten millibit-cents (0.1 mBTC) or "point 1 millibits". 0.0001 = 10000 Satoshis, so we could just skip right to the chase and say ten-thousand satoshi. I think there has been quite a few currencies in the world that worked with such large numbers for buying things like a cup of coffee. 100,000,000 Satoshis is one bitcoin, so even if bitcoin drops back to dollar parity, we will still be able to talk about them as 100 million satoshis. Really, this whole decimal point thing is a pain in the arse, and is totally unnecessary. Bitcoins are stored as ints anyway, and the decimal point 8 digits in was just a convenient display thing early on when bitcoins weren't worth much. What about
00.00000001 = 1 satoshi (1 s or 1 sat) 00.00001000 = 1 thousandkilo-satoshi (1 ks or 1 ksat) 00.01000000 = 1 millionmega-satoshi (1 Ms or Msat)

SI for 0.0001 BTC: 1 dmBTC (deciMilliBitcoin = a 10th of a mBTC or 0.1 mBTC) 1 hµBTC (hectoMicroBitcoin = 100 µBTC)
Fraction, a part of a unit: 1 fBTC (fractBitcoin or fractBTC) 1 Fract
Programming: 1 tBTC (tinyBitcoin or tinyBTC) 1 tmBTC (tinyMilliBitcoin or tinymBTC)

After reading all the suggestions it will maybe the best to stay in the already started scheme:
0.00100000 BTC = 1 mBTC 0.00010000 BTC = 1 <?> 0.00000100 BTC = 1 µBTC 0.00000001 BTC = 1 Satoshi (three letter notation STI or SAT or STS ?? )
If there shall be another specialized unit name for 0.0001 my preferences would be:
Greek: 1 Myriade = 10000
0.00010000 BTC = 1 Myriasatoshi Coin = 1 MSC
Alternatively:
1 Myriasatoshi = 1 MSI
My BTC address: 1METhkrvz2r9d3zkFPQrHnpFC1BjCs64Zf

This is imho completely bonkers. 1) It gives us more time before making another change than mBTC would
What do you mean by this? I don't even understand your sentence. 2) It removes the possibility of using common decimal prefixes (milli- and micro-) which, as bad as it may sound, would face resistance in the U.S.
Yes, why not use "cookiejars" for every .0023 of bitcoins? The metric system MAKES A LOT OF SENSE and everybody uses it for a reason. The US has to suck it up at some point. Maybe we can rename bitcoin to sickles, with 23 knuts in a sickle? Then at least Harry Potter would be happy. 3) It's compatible with a minimum transaction fee of 0.0001 BTC
Which is most likely to change at some point, see the various discussions on the dev list (cf floating fees) 4) New users would likely be happier with it than mBTC, as they'd get "more" for their money with a smaller denomination (ah, human psychology)
Following this argument we should go straight for satoshis. 5) The values wouldn't be as large as with uBTC 6) It leaves us with a very manageable 4 decimal places
Both true, but I don't see the advantage over mBTC which has similar properties. 7) It reduces the transition to satoshis down to two equally-spaced steps, leaving only one familiar future change
That's about the only positive point to say of your proposal...

Future history books agree the common name for .0001 bitcoin is:
one blit so let's go with that.
It contains "bit" but is also distinctive, simple, short, and catchy.
A common phrase in the upcoming vernacular is "Blitz me a few and I'll get it done for you." Requesting 1000 blits...
Bonus: In computer graphics, blit is backronymed to "BLock Image Transfer". In the bitcoin world, block-based transfers can certainly boost your image, so to speak.
Thanks for this contest!

(Naturally some users will specify a transaction with the alternate spelling "20 blitz" instead of "20 blits", since the plural form is almost always used.)

- Man-satoshi (Rhymes with Flan 10,000 in Japanese is Man. So literally this would mean 10,000 satoshis - Maan-satoshi (maybe putting it in Cantonese would make the Chinese government more Bitcoin Friendly? Also, it might get pronounced properly)
Or just - Maan (Cantonese for 10,000 -- maybe leaving off the satoshi makes it easier to read?)
If we flip it (to increase the chances people would say it right --but less accurate in Japanese-- but has a cool ring to it.) - Satoshi-Ban

Bitcoin is the ultimate freedom test. It tells you who is giving lip service and who genuinely believes in it.
... ... In the future, books that summarize the history of money will have a line that says, “and then came bitcoin.” It is the economic singularity. 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! It's a smaller pool with a fair & low-fee payment method, lots of statistical feedback, and it's easier than EasyMiner! (Yes, we want your hashing power, but seriously, it IS the easiest pool to use! Sign up in seconds to try it!)... ... The idea that deflation causes hoarding (to any problematic degree) is a lie used to justify theft of value from your savings.

I'm aware there are duplicates. Credit will go to the first poster when I dig through the names for the poll.
