Picochu may refer to:

Etymology[]

The prefix "pico-" attached to the family name of Ochu. It is possibly meant to sound similar to Pikachu from Pokémon.

Pico (symbol p) is a unit prefix meaning one trillionth. Used primarily with the metric system, this prefix denotes a factor of 10−12 or 0.000 000 000 001.

"Ochu" comes from Dungeons & Dragons; specifically, it is the otyugh. The name in Japanese (and transliterations) comes from the pronunciation; it is pronounced with a short O and T (practically to a ch), making the pronunciation close to "o-chuugh". "オチュー" is the closest the katakana system can get to representing the sound without using compound katakana pronunciations not natively found in Japanese.
