7-11?

I know, it's not an acronym, but I'm stumped otherwise.

Acronyms and initialism with numbers are tough! Should we consider using the first or last letter of a number?

7 = Seven. Go with the "S" or the "N".

I'd say since we go with the last letter when all letters, so with the "N".

All if favor?

I think the slang 'outta' is used instead of the proper 'out of.'
