I happen to own reference manuals from System iv (AT&T) and other early versions of *nix and some of your definitions

emacs = edit macros
gdb = GNU debug
gcc = GNU Compiler Collection
linux = Linus' Unix
lisp = LISt Processor
Perl = see the Camel book by Larry Wall, the inventor of Perl for *His* definitions of what Perl means
printf = print formatted
sed = Stream EDit
top = top processes
vi = VIsual editor
