Surface Forms

gazillionaire singular

Morphology

gazillionaire = gazillion + aire (transparent) = gazillion + aire

The word follows the productive pattern 'X' + '-aire' (as in 'millionaire'), so 'gazillion' + '-aire' clearly yields a humorous 'person with a gazillion' meaning.

Etymology

Gazillionaire comes from gazillion ('a made-up huge number') plus the ending -aire, like in millionaire. So it means 'someone extremely rich' and is often used as a funny, exaggerated way to talk about a person with a huge amount of money.
