Ditto. I did know what a googol was when I was eight, but it isn't a name that anyone actually uses outside of trivia quizzes as far as I know. The only numbers greater than 1000 with special names ought to be powers of 1000, and once you get much past 1000 most people use exponential notation anyway.
