Using "Satoshi" for smaller units of Bitcoin was proposed by Bitcointk user ribuck, however he wanted 100th of a Bitcoin to be a Satoshi.
A few months later, he considered the smallest units is better fit for this name. Btw "Austrian" was considered.

OP is talking about his auction from 2010 trying to sell 10,000 bitcoin for $50 lol
Nice find.
Wow, what a unique piece of history that was, right there. Can someone help me clarify the "Austrian" reference please?
I think its some Austrian economics reference?
Really? That would make sense. Thanks!!!
