Level Up (A5E) What would you *call* an Advanced 5E?

OK, if my favorite idea (None More Dark: 5E Dialed to 11) isn't going to fly, then I also quite like the A5E acronym.

It's gonna sound stupid or cliche but...

5E NEXT/NEXT 5E

5E NEXT/NEXT 5E

Oh crackers how did we not think of that one.

None More Dark sounds like a seriously good title for a Campaign though.

I thought it would be fitting since 5E started out via the NEXT Tests and that a number of NEXT features for classes were unique to them during the NEXT playtests. Such as Warlock apparently having their version of Wildshape and of course, the ever popular/requested NEXT Sorcerer's features.

I also like how 5E could be L33T speaken as "Special Edition" since this would pretty much bring 5E full circle in a way.

5E Beyond

Solid acronym too—but it'll get confused with DnD Beyond.

Fifth Edition Expert shortens to 5X, which is kinda cool, although some wank will start calling it FEE right away. It also shortens to FEDEX, which may be taken. 5EDEX?

3-letter acronyms can't be searched for on most platforms.

Really? Is that still true? I remember hearing that at some point but I think it was pre-smart phone.
