== But Not ''Too'' Short ==
If you shorten the proposed name down to a TLA, expect somebody to come along and move your trope to make way for a disambiguation page. There are only 17,576 possible Three-Letter Abbreviations, after all - by now, most of them mean more than one thing, and what comes to mind when you think of a TLA isn't necessarily what comes to somebody else's mind. (For example, there are hundreds if not thousands of people who hear "BFG" and don't immediately think of [[Roald Dahl]]'s book ''Big Friendly Giant''.)
Make sure the trope name means something on its own.
