Can you be more specific?
What kind of real names?
You've posted wima film caps of different value. Wima is the company that makes them, and those are the values. If you have J or K in their name, that is cap's tolerance. Number 63 is the voltage rating. You can have bigger voltage rating with no difference for the unit to work, but sometimes higher voltage rating also increases physical size of the cap, so measure leg spacing before you buy.
That's for Rev A of 1176?

Multiply by 1000 to go from pico to nano.

uF is bigger than
nF is bigger than
pF
If your cap says 22n, its 22 nano (or 0,022uF or 22000pF)
If your cap says 12n, its 12 nano (or 0,012uF or 12000pF)
The notation will be a little different for different components, but you can be sure the value is not 470 or 47 in any denomination, if it says 4700 on the cap, since you multiply or divide by 1000 to go between micro (uF) nano (nF) and picoFarad (pF). 99% of the time, you can simple check what makes most sense (4700x? 4,7x? etc)
Hope that helps.
For example. Your 0,033 cap is probably 0,033 microFarad, which is also 33nF, and the number 63 after denoted the maximum voltage the cap will agree with.

Yes, i`m building the Rev A 1176
"populating the PCB" is a step in the building guide of the Rev A.
thanks for the response!
