The term acronym refers to creating a word from the first letters of a name, phrase, title, or organization. Acronyms include Scuba and NATO. Other acronym forms may use more than one letter from words, such as radar, Interpol, and Nabisco.

When an acronym consists solely of the letters read in series, it may be called an initialism. These would include FBI, BBC, PBS, and HTML.
