2 BIER-PE  - Path Engineering
5 BIER-ET  - Explicit Trees
3 BIER-EET - Explicit Engineered Trees
4 BIER-BET - Bit Engineered Trees
3 BIER-BST - Bit Steered Trees
2 BIER-TrE - Tree engineering
3 BIER-ET  - Engineered Trees
2 BIER-ST  - Steered Trees

2 BIER-ASB - Adjacency Steering Bits   (adjacencies are how bits in BIER-PE are defined)
  BIER-AB  - Adjacency Bits
  BIER-SB  - Steering Bits             (overloads with "Source Block" - never heard)

I prefer Explixit Trees because it is indicative of what is
signalled(trees), and it nicely doubles down as a name
  Bit Indexed Explicit Replication, Explixit Trees
