Why not use EFMC?

Subject: [EFM] Official Nickname for our standard?
Hey All,
Here's another question. Do we have an official nickname for our standard? For example, 10GBASE-X registers in Clause 45 are called "10G <register name>".
Do we have something like "EFM <register name"? "10PASS-TS/2BASE-TL <register name>" seems a little lengthy. Maybe we just live with the long winded version, but is there a good alternative?
As far as I remember, we are discouraged from using EFM in the draft. What about these suggestions:
SAN -- $ub$criber access network? (a good joke against our storage colleagues)
SuNe -- $ub$criber network?
SAP -- $ub$criber access PHY?
What does everyone think?
I have a comment to put something in front of the 10PASS-TS/2BASE-TL registers, I'll just use the long winded version if no one has a better idea.
