No, it's just called an 8-Ball instead of an eighth because drugs are illegal so you speak in plausibly deniable code, that way when you're being recorded by an undercover agent you're on tape saying "Let's go hit a few 8-Balls man!" instead of "Yes sir, I need one eighth of one ounce of felony narcotics, please."
