The names ''minisma'' and ''minic comma'' were given by [[Flora Canou]] in 2026 after the general interval size measure knowns as the ''[[mina]]'', because 4096/4095 is the default comma represented by a mina (or three [[tina]]s) in [[Sagittal notation]]. ''Mina'' is a clipping of ''schismina'', which describes a range of commas in Sagittal notation, and in turn comes from ''schisma'' (the interval region) + -in (diminutive suffix). [[Eufalesio]] proposed ''trinyblisma'', for the denominator is the largest integer that can be written in 3 {{w|nibble|nybbles}} (1.5 bytes).
