Recursive acronym - A recursive acronym is an acronym (or occasionally, a backronym) which refers to itself in the expression for which it stands, similar to a recursive abbreviation. Though, because of their lack of a termination condition, perhaps a more accurate term would be circular acronym.
Pseudo-acronym - A pseudo-acronym is an apparent acronym or other abbreviation which doesn't stand for anything, or cannot be officially expanded to some meaning. For instance:
Chemical symbol - A chemical symbol is an abbreviation or short representation of the name of a chemical element. Natural elements all have symbols of one or two letters; some man-made elements have temporary symbols of three letters.
TLA - The TLA (three-letter acronym or three-letter abbreviation) is the most popular type of abbreviation in technical terminology, and is also very common in general language. While three-letter acronym is the older and more frequently cited term, many argue that use of the word acronym here is incorrect (see acronym and initialism), and therefore advocate using abbreviation in its place.
