Bacronym 

An example of a Neologism and an alternative spelling of the word backronym, a term was probably invented by Alan Chapman a business consultant based in Leicester England. Both spellings are used on his website (Businessballs), but bacronym might just be linguistically purer than backronym (being closer in appearance to acronym).
When used as an acronym fine is actually a bacronym.
