My favorite prefix will always be exa. Mostly because of a sci-fi book where one character called himself Exa and there were a few subtle puns with that name (like getting obliterated with a 10^18 W laser)

I do like to sleep in
Glory to the metric system 🫡🇫🇷
Bah, Imperial Units all the way. How else would I know how many stone I weigh, or how many King’s Pubes I am tall? I don’t want to convert from kilometers (whatever those are!) to gentlemans-strides or shilling miles to get where I’m going.
Damn, I was really holding out for Hella for 10^27
Alas, the prefix H was already in use according to the page you linked. Disappointing.
I don’t think it’s used as a prefix but as a unit symbol. Point still stands though, unfortunately.
The campaign hasn’t made any progress since 2011 when Wolfram Alpha added support for it, a year after Google did. Google’s calculator still does support it, though, so you can write queries like like “1Zbit/s * 1 year in hellabytes” (3.9 hellabytes), or “mass of the earth in hellagrams” (5.9 hellagrams).

If 1027 would be Hella, would 10-27 then be Hello? 🙃
Maybe there can be an exception when referring to Californium
smol
Not to be confused with
SWOL
‘s’ and ‘S’ could be usable for these.
The only problem being smol -> s mol -> smol mole …Because mol is another unit, making the usage of the full form ambiguous
Fun fact: they made these because Cookie Clicker needed them
Cookie Clicker doesn’t use SI prefixes. It just uses numbers (eg million, billion, octodecillion, etc…), which already extend into basically infinity I believe.

In case you wondered where they came in the list like I immediately did:
- quetta Q 10^30
- ronna R 10^27
- yotta Y 10^24
- zetta Z 10^21
- exa E 10^18
- peta P 10^15
- tera T 10^12
- giga G 10^9
- mega M 10^6
- kilo k 10^3
- hecto h 10^2
- deca da 10^1
- ——
- deci d 10^−1
- centi c 10^−2
- milli m 10^−3
- micro μ 10^−6
- nano n 10^−9
- pico p 10^−12
- femto f 10^p−15
- atto a 10^−18
- zepto z 10^−21
- yocto y 10^−24
- ronto r 10^−27
- quecto q 10^−30
I’m going to start giving my height in quectometres
I noticed recently that a Linux command mentioned in its manpage that it supported Q as a bit prefix and I had to stop to ponder the utility in encoding a million-billion Terabytes.
But did they mean Quettabytes or Quebibytes? Because the difference is only around 250 000 times the size of the Internet.
Bah, that’s just a rounding error!
Or, in other words, around 244 kibiInternets.
Googol 10^100.
(Not sure if that’s official prefix.)
As far as I remember it isn’t, it’s just a named specific large number, like Avogadro’s number or Graham’s number.
I’m hella disappointed
Lets define here and now Hella (H) as 10^666. It’s not SI official, but not “false”.
Ronna and ronto: disgusting
Quetta and quecto: pleasing
Whoa, that’s such big news, i just shifted a rontometer in my seat.
Imagine confusing ronto and ronna and accidentally shifting a ronnameter instead :P
1/R = r
lovely
Now we just need the cunni - 10⁶⁹
nice
Actually, it’s not ronnabyte, it’s ribibyte …
You gotta lick a frog or two to understand kibimibi.
RiB
10-30 quesito
Ohhh, síiii
10^32… Chilito
Yes! Yes baby yes!
