half a pound?
These names for bigger chunks of bitcoin makes me think we're expecting prices to keep going down instead of up...
Well, I was just suggesting names for the Casascius coins, which already exist, and 50 BTC being a block is obvious.I think that Bitcoin might be as good an opportunity as any to get people using scientific notation. That could be shortened to something like:
' 20 neg-threes' (e.g., 20E-03, 20x10^-3)
25 BTC should be a "Jesus." As in, "Jesus, that's a lot of money." Also, it was his birthday.
I am strongly against using religious names for bitcoin. Unless we call 50 BTC a "Darwin", since it's obviously worth more 
Or we could just call a ScamCoin a "god".
LOL. I am not religious in the least - just a comedian.

25BTC - A GoldBit?
That sounds like it's keyed to gold…

Well, I was just suggesting names for the Casascius coins, which already exist, and 50 BTC being a block is obvious.More suggestions then:
0.01 BTC
- Ferm (screw "cent". Fermium is the 100th element in the periodic table)
- Boil (100°C is the boiling point of water)
- Bang (more bang for your buck)
0.001 BTC
- m (just "m". As in, I've got three em in my pocket.)
- Bip (no reason)
- Leap (The year 1000 was a leap year. Also, cryptocurrency is a great leap forward in monetary exchange.)

BTC -- I'd just go with "coin" 
For larger amounts -- 50 BTC = a block.
For 1 BTC, I was looking for something similar to "a buck". But I guess that may evolve by itself over time.For larger amounts -- 50 BTC = a block.
50 BTC being a block, I agree with. We don't have any physical 50 BTC coins though

I hope whoever is suggesting new names aren't the same that said it needs a new name, cause your suggestions suck, really...
PhysiPhysi!
Physicoin! 
Just change the website name to something else and grab all the variations. Not enough people really know about them yet, do they?
This. I would continue to sell your existing coins but if/when you decide to go for round 2 come up with a completely different name and this time spend the $80 or so to bulk register alternate versions.

Well DiarrheaCoin would certainly imply a fast, slick service.
Nah, that name just stinks. It's a shit name. Sounds like you just pulled it out if your ass.
You guys have been reading the fetlife thread on SomethingAwful, haven't you?
I always read it as 'casashious'.
I just think it's a dumb name.

I like it if it's pronounced my way :/
Let's just call them Cash-Ass coins as a nod to buttcoin
You're a genius.
I wonder if we should rename dialcoin to dialdiarrhea.
