Which school is short for Nanda?

Nanda is the abbreviation of Nanjing University.

Nantah:

In 21, Nanjing University used the abbreviation "Nantah" in many trademark registrations, and in 214, the abbreviation "Nantah" was approved by the Ministry of Education. In 215, Nanchang University published the Charter of Nanchang University in official website, and named it "Nanda" for short, which was a repetition of the long-established abbreviation of "Nanjing University" and aroused public concern.

Actually, the abbreviation of Nanchang University "Nanda" doesn't make sense. Although Nanchang University has been switching back and forth between "Nanda" and "Changda" since its establishment, many trademarks of Nanchang University are registered as "Changda". Moreover, the school song of Nanchang University is "Looking at the Great Chang" instead of "Looking at the Great South".

Methods to standardize school abbreviations:

On the one hand, it is strictly required that official documents, publications and school teaching should not use or appear network abbreviations. On the other hand, we should be tolerant. No matter how novel the network abbreviation language is, after all, it is for the purpose of communication. This factor determines that it can't be too outrageous, and some distinctive new abbreviations will also settle down and enter the standard words.
