If I had the power and authority to change the name Satoshi, Sats or Bits, I would not change the name Satoshi as the smallest unit of Bitcoin, because as a tribute and remember the creator of Bitcoin.
The word Bits is more popular means you could find many earning websites showing that you have 2642 bits however it is in the meaning of satoshis this is what it is common and reputable.

If you had the power the change the name of 1 satoshi, would you keep the name or would you rename it? What do you like better as far as names go and the ease of understanding for newcomers?
Satoshi is actually fine and I will like to keep the name as Satoshi because it shows respect to the founder of bitcoin who is Satoshi Nakamoto.

I will still go for Satoshi because it is a name that is different from the real name 'bitcoin'. And after all it is to honour the founder

I am against changing the word, politicians are changing meaning of words, they don't want anything that just not suit them, we should restrain. Function of Bitcoin is named after founder Satoshi, I will call it Satoshi.

It was named in satoshi to immortalize the mysterious satoshi nakamoto. No one knows if he is dead or is alive.
I am in supportive of your assertion because it is highly needed to immortalize the Legend and who has influenced the digital space in such a great way.

Satoshi Nakamoto is indeed a legend and he has paved the way for many digital assets. The protocol he provided was what was being built upon by many digital token developers.
