I like the idea of the Eurobut the name is so... dull.
Why don't they just bring in a decimal version of the old Roman currency, the Librum? Obviously the the symbol of the united currency would have to be a cursive L with a stroke through it, but I'm sure we could find an ASCII character to represent that.

Don't say thatYou'll make the Hellenics angry.
Edit: And the Slavs, and the Irish... Anyway, almost all predecimal scandinavian and teutonic currencies were descended from the librum. It's not an entirely daft idea.
