If the standard ones are not to suggestive enough you can tweak them from the Apple Watch app on your iPhone. Access it and browse to My Watch -> Clock -> City Abbreviations. Tap the location’s name and edit. For example, I use Abu Dhabi and the default abbreviation is “AD”. I changed it to ABU to make it more suggestive.
