Were there letters carved in the body of the Black Dahlia?

It was reported that the initials BD were carved into the body of Elizabeth Short, obviously meaning black dahlia. It is thought that the name 'Black Dahlia' came after her death in the press. There were many small criss-cross cuts and slashes, some that faintly resembled the letter D. It was more an accident of the knife wielder than a written hint, symbolizing no more than a pattern of stabbing.
