From
*info* (emacs) Initial Options
‘-daemon=SERVER-NAME’
Start emacs in background as a daemon, and use SERVER-NAME as the
server name.
Curiously that syntax is not mentioned on the output of `emacs --help',
nor it is clear if --daemon=SERVER-NAME is accepted (note the two
hyphens).
IMHO, --fg-daemon or --daemon-fg makes more sense, but then we need
--fg-daemon=SERVER-NAME and -fg-daemon=SERVER-NAME; same for the --bg*
alternative.

Then you are on the right place.
An we are entering in a combinatorial explosion. We have bikeshedding
material until New Year's Eve and beyond!
