Finally i did some research () and come up with the following reason;

All tcodes are named after the application they belong.

To see a list of application and their meaning, go to SE16 and see the entries of table TAPLP.

*	Cross-Application
A	Asset Accounting
B	Business Information Warehouse
C	PPC
D	DASS (control station)
E	RIVA
F	Financial accounting
G	General ledger
H	Human Resources Planning
I	Plant maintenance
J	Publishing
K	Cost accounting
L	Warehouse Management
M	Materials management
N	Hospital
P	Human resources
Q	QSS (Quality assurance)
R	Unknown application
S	Basis
U	Enterprise Data Model
V	Sales
W	MMS (Merchandise mgt. system)
Y	Customer Head Office
Z	Customer branch

Hope i have cleared your doubt, dont ask me what is E, A in SE,ME and VA .

O is for customizing transactions (the second letter stands for the application, B is for Finance, so this is a customizing transaction in Finance), T is... no idea, I guess that one is a complete mess, however looks like most of them are for table maintenance

back to the original question:

SE: no idea

ME: E stands for Einkauf (Purchasing)

VA: A stands for Auftrag (order)

I guess at the very beginning SAP tried to apply some logic and coding, but since that it is messed up on some places (you can check the same at table names).
