B.B. is an abbreviation which may refer to:
- Ballast Bonus - a special payment in shipping terms
- Bareboat - a shipping term describing a type of charter
- Boys' Brigade - an international non-denominational Christian youth organization
- Ball bearing, pericularly in the context of a BB rifle: a primitive air weapon that fires ball-bearings or similarly-shaped shot.
B.B. was also the pen name of the British childrens' writer Denys Watkins-Pitchford (1905-1990), author of The Little Grey Men (1942) and other novels which drew much of their lyrical inspiration from the natural world[1].
