Are these aliased in /shortcut form as well or no?

I don't think cfnm is a bad idea, because terms like "CFNM" are widely used as abbreviations, instead of being invented just for Danbooru. I got this justification from forum #33548.

Relatedly, here are new requests for aliases.

Reason: To make sure "naked" is the standard term while keeping all the aforementioned possibilities. And, in addition, introducing the abbreviations with slashes, just in case they are used. (Like final_fantasy_ix, whose abbreviations are both ff9 and /ff9.)

However, the generally used name of the term is "Clothed X, naked Y".

Why does this have Wikipedia articles, I don't even. Also:
"...Clothed male, naked (or nude) female..."
"...Clothed female, naked (or nude) male..."

Regardless of all that, I'd say our stronger precedent is to do what we do with rigour and internal consistency; historically "common usage" has resulted in bullshit like "Yasuhiro Nightow". So let us continue to ignore the "masses"-- they get the result they expect even if it's not necessarily how they would write it.
