Let one ten thousandth of a bitcoin be 1/10000 b, where the unit of "b" uses lowercase since bitcoin is not a proper name, like h for hash instead of H for Hertz. Then, 0.0001 b = 0.1 mb = 100 μb = 10 kiloSat, or say ".1 em-bee is 100 mu-bee is 10 kSa," if you like...or 10kS, i.e. 10 kSatoshi.

We're trying to simplify so normal people can use bitcoin and not have to rely on units to right of decimal point. I don't think your suggestion simplifies, the opposite in fact Wink

Lol, somehow I can't see these catching on Grin

. You need short and sweet little names that are memorable and don't all sound the same.
