Best Answer

One time a man showed his son the huge number and the boy was so surprised that he said "googol!".

The boy was Milton Sirotta, aged 9, in 1938. It was popularized by Edward Kasner. See the related links for more information.

Do not confuse this with google, which is a web site and search engine.
