Why does it have to spell something. It doesn't have to be easy to remember, it is written on a plaque in front of you.

Memorable acronyms are used by pilots to remember lists when they are not available to see. An acronym which is written down in front of you is completely unnecesary and misses the whole point of an acronym.

It doesn't need to spell anything, it just needs to be a good handover for that particular position which could mean a different list on a different sector.
