Now,
"Googol" was suggested by a 9 year old boy when asked to suggest a name for a "v
ery, very large number". That child proposed it because the word is too large to
handle by EYEs.
It wasn't an unrelated or fictional word.
When you think of reading, "an unreadable very large number", the child thought
of Goggle and pat came the reply GooGol.
This Googol was again played-with to get to Google by its creators.
Even though the word came from a round-about route, it ultimately took the help
of the watchful OWL.
Koohal is the actual root of Google!
