I'd been thinking for a long time that the OSM wiki needed a table with some common street name abbreviations (if it exists, I can't find it). When I started surveying I kept on finding weird abbreviations that took some searching to figure out (all the other online maps are also abbreviated). After months of survey, I found I had a large list, compiled from a variety of web sites (councils, real estate, universities) as well as personal knowledge. It's English, and as I'm in Australia, it probably has a couple of local peculiarities, but should probably be good for other English-speaking countries. I hope it's useful.
