What does B&H stand for?

Does anybody have any idea of what B&H stand for? What are the words? Aaronfranke (talk) 21:01, 2 August 2018 (UTC)

B&H Photo Video → B&H Photo – Per WP:COMMONNAME. If you search Google News, almost all of the results will say "B&H" or "B&H Photo" rather than a longer term. I consider this case similar to United States, where "US" (like "B&H") is commonly used but considered a bit too informal to be an encyclopedic title and "United States of America" is primarily used in formal/official contexts (like "B&H Photo Video Pro Audio", the actual full name of the business), so I consider "B&H Photo" the Goldilocks choice. To be fair, the website is at https://www.bhphotovideo.com/, but we've never been too big on official names and in fact this press release shows that even they are not consistent in using "B&H Photo Video".

• Support per nom. I'd even weak support B&H but I like the more natural disambig of this suggestion. -- Netoholic @ 08:17, 7 June 2019 (UTC)
• Support per nom: WP:COMMONNAME. Of the sources that mention B&H in their titles, only 6 use "B&H Photo Video", the rest use B&H Photo or B&H. -Lopifalko (talk) 13:43, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
