Prefixes they should teach everyone in school:

1,000 : Kilo
1,000,000 : Mega
1,000,000,000 : Giga
1,000,000,000,000 : Tera
1,000,000,000,000,000 : Peta
1,000,000,000,000,000,000 : Exa

0.01 : centi
0.001 : milli
0.000,001 : micro
0.000,000,001 : nano
0.000,000,000,001 : pico
0.000,000,000,000,001 : femto
0.000,000,000,000,000,001 : atto

For EVEN bigger or smaller numbers, I think we can use digits for the very rare occasions. :-)
