What about "TWAIN"? (Technology Without An Interesting Name).
Yes, that is really what the acronym stands for. Does that help at
all?
How about "LASER"? Which is usually "laser" now and even has a
back-formation "lase".
A student assembler that was at use at Simon Fraser University in
the late '70s was called "NIP", which stood for "Nothing In
Particular".
Sincerely,
Gene Wirchenko
