Maybe. I just like the way it's pronounced.

And you just waited for a V to come up, didn't you??

Thank you! It partly came from the fact that all my adult life I've found it very difficult to remember the word "acronym", especially if I haven't used it for even just a few months. Once in a while, POOF! It's gone. So I made up this game partly to remember it.
