The palm is an obsolete anthropic unit of length, originally based on the width of the human palm and then variously standardized. The same name is also used for a second, rather larger unit based on the length of the human hand.
An attometer is a unit of length, a combination of the metric prefix atto (symbol a) and the SI unit of length meter (symbol m), equal to 10−18 meter or 1.0E-18 meter and its symbol is am. Plural name is attometers.
