On the off chance you aren't actually trolling:

G: The commercial Unix implementation for Alpha workstations was
called Di*g*ital Unix at one point in its history (between being known
as OSF/1 and being known as Tru64 Unix); there was also a manufacturer
called Data General whose OS was called DG/UX.

K: There's the BerKeley Standard Distribution and all its variants,
though BSD is rarely actually spelled out.  I can't think of much else
offhand.
