Kiddo wants to know, since numbers are infinite, doesn’t that mean that there must be a real number “bajillion”?

This isn’t true because number names can get longer. You can construct an infinite sequence of names for numbers that doesn’t include “bajillion”. In fact, you could call 1 “one,” 2 “one plus one” and so on. You’d never run out of names and you’d have a name for each number.
