I have not seen a sticky topic with a listing of Short Forms used on CC.

 

So I'm going start one

 

DW-Dear Wife

DH-Dear Husband

DD-Dear Daughter

DS-Dear Son

DSIL-Dear Son In-Law

DDIL-Dear Daughter In-Law

DMIL-Dear Mother In-Law

DSIL-Dear Sister In-Law

DBIL-Dear Brother In-Law

 

There are well over 100, including TA which could mean TransAtlantic or it could mean Travel Agent. Others have tried to make a list and have failed, since the list is bigger than anyone can imagine.

 

That said, best of luck on your quest.
