The Proper Acronym for The Elder Stats

Every good or popular website with a name consisting of more than one word can benefit from others using an acronym to refer to that website. It gives the website a recognizable way to be referred to, and makes it easier to type or say than saying the full name. So, with this in mind, I would like to create an official acronym for The Elder Stats that will be recognized by the administration of The Elder Stats from now on, and I would like to hear your input.

I would like to go with TES as our acronym, but with The Elder Scrolls having that same acronym, I don't think it's a very good idea because there can be some mix-ups when referring to The Elder Stats using the acronym TES. So, what else can we use? Well, I was thinking of using TESW (The Elder Stats Website), but I'm not sure that looks so good. We could simply refer to it as ES (Elder Stats), but it seems like too vague of an acronym.

Anyway, those are some of my suggestions. What are some of yours? I'd like to establish an effective acronym for The Elder Stats before the website is completed and released.

I also like ES, but someone call TES for ES(Elder Scrolls).
But else, it's fine ;)

Uh, sure.... :D

Well, then ES it is! I think that sounds like a good acronym. Now, you can always call The Elder Stats by whatever acronym you wish, but ES sounds good for the majority of members to use. Thanks for your input, guys.

Yeah, definitely ES. Sounds the coolest, and it's short and simple.
