Is there a name for that? Like 4^4 or 8^8.

I don't know. I looked around google, Wikipedia, and Wolfram, but I couldn't find an answer. I would assume there's got to be something special about that form. You could write to ol' Stevie W (of the aforementioned Wolfram Research), and ask him. I don't know if he responds to "little children" with those sorts of questions though.
