I have always been and always will be an avid proponent of just typing out the whole-ass title of some piece of media when you talk about it, at least once.
I think the best example I can show as to why this is so important comes from when Destiny 2 was still new and in the conversation; and people had taken to calling it "D2". There are two big problems with this, the fact that for almost a quarter of a century a significant number of people online have used "D2" to refer to the game Diablo 2, a game that is very similar in concept to Destiny 2; but even moreso is there just is a game called D2. It's the sequel to the game D even though it doesn't play anything like it. There is a D2, it exists! I would have loved to talk with people about D2, I've wanted to be able to do that for ages, but no, people just wanted to talk about some live-service content-muncher game.
Please, just use your words. That's all I ask. Also try D2, maybe you'll like it, maybe you won't, but you'll never know unless you try.
But the game called D2 is especially cool since the only thing consistent with the previous D is the protagonist is played by the same actress who is not a real person. Kenji Eno's idea of a "digital actress" was incorporated across the series, so the same "actress" was used despite her having a different personality, style, and name.
If you're curious, the other games starring "Laura" are, of course, the original D, and Enemy Zero a kinda cool space horror game with a final segment that will make you pull your hair out.
