Actually, NCC doesn't stand for anything. It actually came from American aircraft registration numbers: An N in the tail number means that the aircraft is from the USA. In addition, a C means it's a Civil aircraft. One of the people that worked on Star Trek: The Original Series (Bob Justman, I think), added another C, just because he thought it looked good.--- The Star Trek Encyclopedia, 1999 version.

NCC-1701 is the registry code for the USS Enterprise, a series of starships serving in the Federation Starfleet.

The code NCC doesn't mean anything in particular, it is merely a snide reference to the Soviet vehicle code 'CC'. 'N' Was added to look cool, the same applied with 'NX', and 'NAR'.

Matt Jefferies, the original designer of the Enterprise, derived "NCC" from the "NC" prefix used on American civilian aircraft and added an extra "C" because he thought it looked better. It's never been established what "NCC" stands for within the Star Trekuniverse.
