I've read that the Hebrew girls' name Maya is used in Israel as an acronym for the Yom Kippur War of 1973, and that Nili is an acronym for a Biblical verse from I Samuel 15:29, meaning "The Eternal One of Israel will not lie" in Hebrew. I'm intrigued - are there any more Hebrew names like this i.e. acronyms that carry a religious or patriotic meaning? I would be very grateful if someone could provide more examples.
Edit: I checked the archives and found another one - Shilat.
