Dio Second's are called this because of how long "Dio's Seconds" are in his ability to time stop. Dio Seconds contradict the actual Timestop seconds
Dio: The World! Stop time

Dio: One second has passed! Two seconds have passed! Three seconds have passed! Four seconds... Five seconds have passed, Six seconds have passed. Seven seconds have passed! I still feel the power! I can still keep it up! By the way Jotaro, you shouldn't be able to move any longer. You probably gambled on the two seconds before time starts to move again, but you've miscalculated. What a truly magnificent feeling! I feel so good, I could break into song! Eight seconds have passed! One hundred years ago, I attained immortality, but I didn't feel as absolutely wonderful then as I do now! Joestar blood suits me so very well! This is the greatest high!

Jotaro: O-Old man... you were right. Getting mad has gotten me into trouble. But this isn't the end of it. I still have plenty more are to hurl at him.

Dio: Nine seconds have passed! But it appears that stopping time for nine seconds is my current limit.

Jotaro: Y-You bastard...

Dio then hits Jotaro so hard breaking bones in 3 different places, the fight contnues.

Dio will monologue in his "9" Dio seconds despite the fact he has 9 seconds in timestop.
