Milton dubbed it googol, and also came up with googolplex, or one followed by a googol zeroes.
Milton turned nine in that year, and family archives show Kasner began referring to the number in lectures soon afterwards.
But Denise Sirotta says her father, Edwin, told her "he was asked for a word with a sound that had a lot of O's in it" - just as googol had many zeroes.

The term was invented by Milton Sirotta, the 9-year nephew of mathematician Edward Kasner, who had asked his nephew what he thought such a large number should be called.
Such a number, Milton apparently replied after a short thought, could only be called something as silly as...a googol!
