Many observers will have noticed that the Borussia Dortmund club crest boasts the letters BVB with no reference to Dortmund in the acronym and these three letters are far from a straightforward abbreviation of the club’s name.

This shortened name comes from the full club title, which is ‘Ballspielverein Borussia 09 e.V. Dortmund.’ Breaking this down into English, it translates as: ‘Ball game club – Borussia – 1909 – registered association – Dortmund’. The latter part of the name refers to the city the club is situated in, while the ‘09′ section indicates the club was founded in 1909.
