Is BREXIT the best word to use and do you know the real name of the UK?

I get the first two letters of Britain combined with exit to create Brexit but it seems that since "they" like to be referred to as the United Kingdom, which by the way seems to an entirely different problem, maybe there is a better word.

Keep in Mind that there are no standard rules when creating an acronym....and since exit is fully incorporated in the new word this can't be an acronym.
It simply becomes a new word for Webster's to consider.

Actually it's already a word first coined in 2012 when the current situation was initially discussed in Parliament.

With all the new testing abbreviations being created 
communication rules are vanishing.

If you get your point across...ES........enough said....or nufsaid.........or of course.....word.

So let's play a pinch and find something perhaps a bit better......(say that with a London accent please)

By the way....the official name of the Country is.....

United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland 
of which the standard acronym, if there were such a thing, would be 
UKOGBANI

******

UKBY
ukbreakaway

UKXEU
this might be harder to pronounce but it does say it all

UKOUT
hippest

I'm probably wasting both of our times playing around with this so suffice to say I just don't think Brexit was the best of the best when choosing a word to explain what the people of The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland decided to do last Friday.

I do think it's bit odd that the new political face of our previous landlord goes to the same hairstylist as Donald Trump.

I'm wondering how much the word union has to do with why The Donald approves of the vote?
The Republican Party has historically been anti-union and when one considers how union membership has shrunk in the last 50 years I'd say they've done a fine job.  The right wingers throughout the world might not be so hostile if it had been called.......

THE EUROPEAN LEAGUE

It's always nice to add a sporting touch to any endeavor....and EL just looks better than EU.
EU looks like it might not smell right

And yes I think
UKOUT is better than BREXIT
