Robert

Nice list, although the last one's baffling: why would we call it "Robert"? :D

Ok, instead call it "Bruce" to keep it clear.

Probably something more basic would tend to stick better.

Modern Atari Graphical Interface. or MAGI

or

First Usable Atari Graphical Interface or FUAGI , pronounce like Fuji. ;)

(I'll get my hat.)

or stealing an idea

Graphical Atari Interface OS or GAIOS. ;)

Something along those lines.

How about the Linux-style recursive acronym? Zing = Zing Is Not GEM.

Wife: "Are you still on that laptop? What you doing?" Husband: "Just downloading BOOBS".

In EastEnders style it'd be FINX = FINX Is Not X or "thinks".
