Some of these are old, but I think not all (e.g. J).

I would go with
C for yourself
Y for mistress

And I'm sorry to say I don't understand G, I, S, or Z.

Never mind quantum cryptography, get a couple of teens txting each
other. That'll keep the spooks baffled.

Or maybe it's ROT13d txt. Although who could tell if it was?

There is also a virtue to it. We use these ambiguities to think round
corners in situations where logic would lead one either to the wrong
conclusion or a sterile dead end. Were language purely logical, that
dream of logicians for a language so pure and logical that it would be
impossible to form and invalid argument in it, then our language would
be seriosuly restricted in its power as a cognitive tool. The
vagueness and ambiguity of language is a powerful tool (allied to its
underlying logic) which is responsible for the very considerable
linguistic augmentation of human mental powers over those of our dumb
fellow creatures.
