INITIALS USED FOR PEOPLE IN THE TOBACCO INDUSTRY

Note: The Swiss and Germans sometimes use a three-character initial system which uses the first character of the Christian name + the first and second characters of the Surname.

Since there are many hyphenated names and multiple first names, sometimes this is varied by first and third, or first and fourth. Another variation has the first two characters of the Christian Name to make a distinctive group if the company has individuals with similar standard initials. it seems to depend on whether associates generally use first, or only surnames in conversation.

For instance at the FTR branch of Philip Morris in Switzerland, we know that:

HGA is Helmut Gaisch, PIC is P Ceschini, RIT is Mitchell Ritter, RDE is Ruth Dempsey .. however MJA is JC Mandiratta (you figure).
