Slightly off-track, but UTC is not an acronym for anything, unless you backronym it by inserting a comma after Time. The English term is Coordinated Universal Time, and the French term Temps Universel Coordonné. UTC is a compromise to make both the anglophones and francophones equally unhappy.

Coordinated Universal Time - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In any case GMT as a term should no longer be used.
