    I can remember one time:

    “P for Potato”,

    “B for… err… i dunno, Botato?”.

      Potato

      Botato

      Brother the explicit purpose of the phonetic alphabet is to make all of the letters audibly distinguishable by ensuring none of them rhyme

        Yet I’ve had someone tell me “P for Pear” which did not answer my question “B or P?”
