I believe that's the name of the actual string company.
http://www.drstrings.com/

I've never heard it being an ackronym for something.

The founder of DR is Mark Dronge. I guess that's where it comes.

Try to say three times "Dronge strings" and you'll understand why they went with DR. I'm glad they did!
