Decoding nicknames

I’ve been meaning to ask for a while, and the A.S. topic (and reading the history again) has finally prompted me to do so. Any idea what [c]fc[/c] means for the criminal factions? I think of it as faction criminal, but that doesn’t seem to fit with the others (edit: maybe it’s fugitive/criminal). Anyway, here’s the list of factions (even if most should be reasonably obvious, at least for English speakers), perhaps other types will come later…

@Skotty: went with all that, but it’s [c]nw[/c], not [c]ng[/c], which gave me the idea for New World. (BTW, all the English text has Kruger, does German have Krüger? Actually, I have the German text, let’s see…why, yes it does, how about that.)

@corpse: Interesting (well, not really), the planets are [c]uk[/c] but the NPCs are [c]or[/c].

[c]uk[/c] is used in a few of the story missions, too.

Yeah, I initially thought of it as “faction criminal”, but I’ve now changed to “fugitive/criminal”.

Good idea… but not that I can see (e.g. [c]fc_uk_grp[/c] only exists in [c]initialworld[/c] and [c]faction_prop[/c], but the names are still empty, except for [c]Lt.[/c]).
