I believe you're talking about this part,

   * Since all global variables share the same name space, and all
     functions share another name space, you should choose a short word
     to distinguish your program from other Lisp programs.(1)  Then
     take care to begin the names of all global variables, constants,
     and functions in your program with the chosen prefix.  This helps
     avoid name conflicts.

and, in particular, this clause, ``you should choose a short word to
distinguish your program from other Lisp programs.''

In the case of EMMS, this short word is `emms'.
