BB

What does BB stand for?

Bye bye

Often seen in online chats or text messages, BB is a fun and fast way to say “bye bye” to your pals. It’s a friendly and informal way to wrap up a conversation.

BB isn’t alone in the world of farewell acronyms. You might also come across BB4N, BBN, Bai, or ADBB as means to say goodbye. These are all just variations on the same idea.

And for those who grew up in the 90s, BB might remind you of the catchy N*SYNC hit, “Bye Bye Bye”. So, not only is it a quick way to end a chat, but it might also get that tune stuck in your head!

Example for using ‘BB’ in a conversation

Hey, are you free to chat?

Hey! Yeah, I’m here. What’s up?

I just wanted to say that I won’t be able to make it to the party tonight. Something came up.

Oh, no worries! Thanks for letting me know. BB then!
