[fa] = Former Acronym

I propose any organization that adopts their acronym as their official name add the lower case letters fa in square brackets to the end of their name so the rest of us do not waste time trying to find out the actual name of the organization. The Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development is now just ASCD, but if they do not tell us, how will we know. Call it ASCD[fa] and all is clear. In reading the name aloud, the [fa] is silent. Now if you will excuse me, I am hungry and am going out for some KFC[fa].

Shouldn't that have been at the top?
