I know of \(ul for underline, \(ua for up-arrow and \(or for |.
(These are rather standard; of course many sites have invented
symbol names of their own and assigned random 2-char names.)
Unfortunately, I need the \(ua for my Romanian a with arc on top,
but one might use \(Ua for lower case and \(UA for upper case
(and similarly \(Oa and \(OA for aa and AA, etc.).
Using two-letter symbol names starting with a capital also greatly
reduces the risk for conflict with already defined symbols.
