bob
Buoy's constant motion
Several words have settled on the spelling b-o-b in English.
The most common is the verb, indicating a quick up-and-down movement: Let’s bob for apples.
The noun bob indicates an instance of this.
A bob is also a kind of short women’s haircut; it is the result when you bob your hair.
In British slang, a bob is shilling, and still notes a quantity of money even though the shilling is obsolete: I lent him a few bob.
When capitalized, Bob is a standard nickname for Robert.
