Creative, Witty, or Humorous Acronyms |
Below you will find an alphabetical listing of
creative, witty, or humorous acronyms. It is
evident that those responsible for naming many
of these organizations or projects put some real
thought into the imaginative acronyms by which
they're commonly known.
Not all of the groups or projects listed below
are still active, while others may have taken
on new monikers. Be aware that some of these
abbreviations, acronyms, recursive initialisms,
and backronyms may have completely different
meanings in different locales. If no specific
city, state, province or country is listed for
a group or organization, this usually means
it exists in several different locations.
PUNCTUATION NOTE: We're cognizant of the fact
that some of the organizations listed below
fail to use proper punctuation in their names.
Rather than correcting this, we present their
names as they normally refer to themselves.
WARNING: Be aware that this page contains language
that may be offensive to some readers.
