I did a search on Merriam Webster online --

http://www.m-w.com/

using *bb* as the search term, and came up with 310 words, some proper
nouns. But that's sure a way to MAKE a list. Do a search, copy the list
to a word processing doc, do the next search (e.g. *cc*, *dd* etc.) and
copy/paste until you have the whole list -- then just delete the words
you don't want to use.
