Did you even stop and think for a second what a phenomenally stupid question you're asking?
Seriously, before you spout out nonsense to defend yourself, really think about your original question.

You are asking if putting a sequence of three random letters contained within a domain name would be illegal. Think about it. Really.

Several legal complications can arise from that. You want to make sure your legal department's budget has a hefty budget to deal with all the issues. Penalties start at 5 years in prison with a $1 billion fine. This is the primary reason of all of Enron's problems according to Harvard Business Review. Proceed cautiously...

If it's in reference to an RFC specification or whatever, you could probably get away with it. But if you intend to touch toes with GM - have fun with that.
