I went with DIS. It’s like VOY or ENT for VOYager and ENTerprise. DIS for DIScovery. Of course with VOY, if it had been STV, that would’ve been interesting, as Voyager was the 5th TV series, so the V would looked like the Roman numeral (and might’ve confused people with STV: Star Trek V: The Final Frontier).

 

[Discofan]

Having read all that I still like DISCO better. maybe because of the festive undertones.
