When christening your organization, team or school, it's important to remember that people will probably shorten the name to an acronym. Same goes for naming your kids—my three middle names are Kate Kim Krystal. Thanks, Mom.
1
Fortress Alpine Race Team
They've since changed it to Fortress Alpine Race Team, and the original team jackets have been destroyed...
2
Conservative Reform Alliance Party
Someone realized the trouble before the name became public, unfortunately, and changed it to the far less interesting Canadian Reform Conservative Alliance.
3
South Lake Union Trolley
Though officially South Lake Union Streetcar, the Seattle locals prefer to ride the SLUT.
4
University of Sannich-Oak Bay
Only an April Fool's trick, unfortunately.
5
First United Church of Kelowna
Really?
6
Authorized Service Shop
Maybe they could have gotten away with it if they just hadn't made that sign...
