Susan<br><br>do go for ICLIC - it's both cute AND has unimpeachable credentials as an unforced acronym, so is likely to stick, AND you're eminently in a position to do the christening, hosting ICLIC 2011 as you are!<br>

I rather like CORLISS (CORpus LInguistics StudieS).<br>
<br>
Actually I also like ICLIC (International Corpus LInguistics Conference), but that sounds like an iphone app.<br>

Subject: [Corpora-List] CORLI<br>
<br>
CORLI sounds like an option.<br>
<br>
From the net: Corly \c(o)-rly, cor-ly\ as a girl's name is a variant<br>
of Corliss (Old English),<br>
and the meaning of Corly is "carefree, cheery, benevolent".<br>
<br>
This would make CORLI a female mate to the COLING.<br>
