On the forum there is some talk of branding.
https://forum.nem.io/ I agree with rb2, the name NEM is fine with or without an acronym.
We can redefine our NEM acronym where the original New Economy Movement is simply replaced
with a new phrase that has better meaning.
Examples:
DVD - Digital Versatile Disc (originally Digital Video Disk)
GAO - Government Accountability Office (originally General Accounting Office)
GPO - Government Publishing Office (originally Government Printing Office)
RAID - Redundant Array of Independent Disks (originally Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks)
WWF - Worldwide Fund for Nature (originally World Wildlife Fund)
TWA - Trans World Airlines (originally Transcontinental & Western Air)
NEM - New Easy Multisig
NEM - New Economic Markets
NEM - New Engineered Money
NEM - N?---? E?---? M?---?
Another option is we can go with a recursive acronym, an acronym that refers to itself.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recursive_acronymExamples:
cURL - Curl URL Request Library
GNU - GNU's Not Unix
LAME - LAME Ain't an MP3 Encoder
MEGA - MEGA Encrypted Global Access
Nano - Nano's ANOther editor
PHP - PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor (originally Personal Home Page Tools)
PIP - PIP Installs Packages
WINE - WINE Is Not an Emulator (originally WINdows Emulator)
XBMC - XBMC Media Center (originally XBox Media Center)
Saab — Saab Aeroplan AktieBolaget (originally Svenska Aeroplan AktieBolaget)
NEM - NEM Easy Multisig
NEM - NEM Experimental Money
NEM - NEM End of Money
NEM - NEM Ez Money
NEM - NEM ExtreMe
NEM - NEM EMpowers
NEM - NEM E?---? M?---?
*not serious about any of these, just some examples, you get the idea
(owon's NEM is Now Entirely MOSAICS or nemoto_v2's New Economic Machina aren't too bad.)

The formal name of the SAT exam was Scholastic Aptitude Test it now goes only by the name SAT.
https://sat.collegeboard.org/NEM doesn't necessarily need to stand for anything, yes originally it was new economy movement but
now it can be simply the brand name. If we can find a good phrase for the N.E.M. or the E.M. then great,
otherwise we can just be NEM without any particular meaning.
