(There's also @sc, if @acronym is too jarring.)

Then half the name will be in smallcaps and the other one won't be,
right?  Doesn't that seem a bit unusual?

My preference here would probably be to just use the names with no
markup, just as we do with e.g. GNU/Linux.  We do that even if the first
half of that name is an acronym.  Would that work?
