I suppose you use the aliases because your filenames are rather long
and/or the files are in a deeply nested directory (e.g.
/very/long/path/to/the/file/foo.txt)
If that's the case I would suggest to
a) create a directory in your $HOME and create symbolic links to all the
files you want to access with a short name in that directory.
b) in vim set the 'path' option to that directory
c) to open the files use :find instead of :new or :edit.
See also :help path and :help find
