It automatically constructs the initials for each helper ship group based on the name of the most basic ship form in the group, and the names of the most basic ship forms of the other helper ship groups. I have no plans to special case nicknames, especially since the nicknames aren't shown in the helper ship column nor are they visible in-game as the ship's name.
