Not to beat a dead horse here, but the United Kingdoms of the Commonwealth (UKC) is my preference; multiple kingdoms united by a common monarch. Let me hear you chant it: "UKC, UKC, UKC, UKC!..."

Then again, the acronym isn't so appealing.

If we could drag the word "British" away from its geographical meaning towards a more global-cultural meaning, we could call the thing "the British Federation", but I think we still face the odd obstacle or two for the moment.

For the meantime, I'll stick with CANZUK as a hook to hang my ideas on.
