Youโve got that mixed up (: di is Greek, bi is latin. You are correct about Latin prefixes being uni, bi, tri, and quad. Think of the word bicentennial, it is Latin based.
Yeah, I actually mixed it up with du (and I also mixed up cardinal and multiple prefixes). So to correct, in Latin it should be: simcaprio, bicaprio, tercaprio, quatercaprio etc...

these prefixes are mixed and matched, in keeping with the Greek numerical prefixes mono and di, the next would be tri and tetra

Except di is Latin. Greek would be bi. So for one it would be uni, three would be tri.

I feel like Leonardo Monocaprio should be half of Leonardo DiCaprio... And then go from there... but I guess it looks weird then.
