@11011110 JDH considered this question in https://www.infinitelymore.xyz/p/the-book-of-numbers?hide_intro_popup=true, initially for the standard US number words, but (perhaps wisely, but a little disappointingly) only worked out the answer for a simpler system in which each digit is named in turn, like reading a telephone number. He concludes that the order type of the natural numbers in the alphabetical telephone number system is \(\mathbb{N}\cdot(1+\mathbb{Q})+1\)
