it seems natural to me to use deb12 for debian 12
deb for debian as in file name extension of package
it follows Windows naming style: win7, win8 ...
but others don't think so, i google with deb12, few means debian
in past 20 years few call it debN (N=1,2,3...)
why few are interested in saving 4 characters (ian )?
I'd save Ian if I could.

I understood that it is some years too late to save Ian -
"
Ian Ashley Murdock (April 28, 1973 – December 28, 2015) was an American
software engineer, known for being the founder of the Debian project and
Progeny Linux Systems, a commercial Linux company.
... He named Debian after his then-girlfriend (later wife) Debra Lynn,
and himself.

Debian should always be mentioned as Debian, and, not Deb. I expect that
his ex-wife, Debra, from whose name, is the Deb of Debian, would agree
with that.
