This one's been bugging me for a while...
What's up with "BMO Bank of Montreal"?
I thought the purpose of an abbreviation or acronym was to SHORTEN a word of phrase. They've added three syllables to their name instead.
Kentucky Fried Chicken didn't become "KFC Kentucky Fried Chicken".
International Business Machines doesn't call itself "IBM International Business Machines".
And who decided that the letters should be in that order?
Does it stand for "Bank Montreal Of"?
