This is not necessarily true. Our university IT department changed its name about a decade ago, from three letters to four letters (both abbreviations). But now, about ten years later still noone apart from the officials use the new name. (Even they don't consistently use it, despite orders(!) to use the new name) I assume this is because the new name is clunkier - it could be pronounced as one syllable before and now all four letters need to be pronounced separately to not sound weird. I think this is similar to the Mandrake/Mandriva example. All the best, Astra
