Designing Data-Intensive Application, aka “The Boar Book” (kabanchik)
2 comments

I mostly see it referred to as DDIA and most people know already what the acronyms means. I don’t know if an acronym counts for OP’s naming scheme though.
The consistent pattern I've noticed is that the books gain their nickname (usually) from the cover of the 1st Edition of the Book.

Acronyms can count too!

It's probably better if you provide a bit more context: "boar" is "kabanchik" in Russian
