An acronym so familiar that no one remembers what it stands for is called an anacronym

Literally, an acronym is a word formed by the initial letters of a phrase or title. In the online environment, acronyms are used to conserve time and space in an electronic message, as well as to express humor. Examples of commonly used acronyms are: ASAP (as soon as possible), FYI (for your information), IMHO (in my humble opinion, as IMO, in my opinion), FWIW (for what it's worth), etc
