  1. STYLE GUIDE SAYS: Do not abbreviate words in an agency’s name, even if they are words that, in other contexts, are commonly abbreviated (e.g., street, road, Mount, Saint, etc.). Do, however, list commonly abbreviated variations as AKAs. (Conversely, if the agency’s legal name already features an abbreviation, list the unabbreviated version as an AKA.) Examples: Agency Name: SAINT PETER’S CHURCH AKA: ST. PETER’S CHURCH
