For giggles, today only, I think a great name for 0.001 BTC is a dollar.

Companies claiming they got hacked and lost your coins sounds like fraud so perfect it could be called fashionable. I never believe them. If I ever experience the misfortune of a real intrusion, I declare I have been honest about the way I have managed the keys in Casascius Coins. I maintain no ability to recover or reproduce the keys, not even under limitless duress or total intrusion. Remember that trusting strangers with your coins without any recourse is, as a matter of principle, not a best practice. Don't keep coins online. Use paper or hardware wallets instead.

haha, the day has arrived when we can officially mock the dollar and be justified. as we move forward, the dollar will slowly become obsolete with cryptocurrencies replacing it along with the BRIC nations basket currencies I think. |

I feel as if we should stray from common names (e.g. Mike), since they don't exactly loan credibility to our money. What if a cent was actually a John? I don't think it'd work out well. As for 0.001, I propose that we call it the "mille". It has a nice, flowing sound to it, and has established ground in the SI prefix system as well as in "permille" (as opposed to percent). It also works well pluralized (see milles). Anyways, those are just my ten milles on the idea.  |

A problem is that mille is French for the number 1000.

Lets look at bitcoin (the blockchain) as a global database and a Satoshi as the minimal unit to save data in there.
So the currency could become an equivalent for the capacity to store data there, to write history. Maybe that is some day more important then money?
What are our measurements for data capacity?
Bit is the smallest unit for information. So a Satoshi could be equivalent to 1 bit.
1000 Satoshis = 1 kilobit ~ 1 cent (USD) at the current price
0.01 BTC = 1 000 000 Satoshi = 1 megabit ~ 10 USD
Of cours it could be confusing to use kilobit/megabit for a currency. Also it does not sound well. So a better name is needed, but maybe the analogy leads somebody to a nice name.
Satoshi is by far the best name for a currency, better then bitcoin IMHO.
Decimal/Cubic/Satoshi (DeCuSa) for 10^3 Satoshis (1000 Satoshis ~ 1 cent)?
And that as symbol: Đ as sign for the leaving dollar ;-)
Or maybe better a mathematical symbol like: Ξ or θ

I actually really like this idea. We could make it a "Dolla" or something close? |

Yes relating the units to Copper, Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum is a great idea.
These are both already commodities of ascending value and widely recognised.
1BTC = 1Bitcoin
0.1BTC= 1Plat
0.01BTC= 1G
0.001BTC = 1S
0.0001BTC = 1B
0.00001BTC = 1C
for example.
