The O gauge was a zero - and so "smaller" than 1 gauge.
HO was "supposed" to be "half-O" but not quite.
In the 1940's there was quite a battle over what scale HO should be, and you'll note that British HO runs on HO tracks but is bigger than US HO.

Smaller than HO was another fight ... but I never followed it.
