Algselt pakutud eesliide „kueka-“ (eesti keeles) tuletati vanakreeka sõnast δἒκα - deka (kümme), tähistamaks arvu 10³⁰, kuid BIPM muutis selle eesliiteks „quetta-“ (eesti keeles "kueta-", kuna sõna "quecca" sarnanes liigselt portugali keele roppusega.
The originally proposed prefix "quecca-" was derived from the ancient Greek word (δἒκα) - (deka) - (ten): 10³⁰, which the BIPM changed to the prefix "quetta-", because the word "quecca" too closely resembled a Portuguese obscenity.
