I've always used "TOE" as thread one end.

That reminded me of how things can get ambiguous when using this form of shorthand. Obviously, TRE stands for "thread right end" [1] and I guess TOE is used because TLE (for "thread left end") could be mixed-up with "thread large end". Especially if you have both left and right-hand threads to deal with.

[1] Which also could be inversely confused with "thread wrong end", I suppose.
